This tutorial is for those proxy lists which are in IPort format like http://samair.ru/proxy or other popular sites.

Opera

Go to Menu Bar >> Tools >> Preferences; select the Advanced tab; select Network option from the list; click on the Proxy servers tab. Checkbox the proxy options (most common are HTTP and HTTPS for general browsing) and enter the IP and Port numbers in appropriate boxes.

Firefox

Go to Menu Bar >> Tools >> Options; select Advanced from the top menu; select Network tab; select the tab Settings for 'Configure how firefox connects to the internet'. Check the Manual Proxy Configuration and put in the IP and Port in the boxes after HTTP option. Others are optional as before and depends on what you need.

(In *nix OSES (Linux, OS X, BSD ...), for Firefox follow Menu Bar >> Preferences and the rest remains same )

Check if the proxy is anonymous or elite by going to the link http://samair.ru/proxy/proxychecker (if you use proxies to hide your IP or conceal your country when you are surfing otherwise skip this option).
