First off, read this,

Second, it sounds like you want to protect against a local attacker from
seeing your traffic.  If so, go to proxy.org, find an https:// or
vpn-based provider and enjoy your encrypted protection against your
local ISP seeing your destination.

If you actually want anonymity, then use Tor as is, for it's designed to
provide anonymity online by default.
