Summary: How to setup my Privoxy for TOR?

Initial Comment:
After installing Tor, you should install privoxy, which is a filtering web 
proxy that integrates well with Tor. Add the line 

forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 .


(don't forget the dot) to privoxy's config file (you can just add it to the 
top). Then change your browser to http proxy at localhost port 8118. 

-How do I do this? I want to be able to surf the Internet using proxies outside 
China, or at least allowing me to visit such websites as google.com, and others 
as here in China, it's been disallowed at times, filtered, blocked whatever you 
want to call it. 

Since this program is English, I am doing my best to cope and understand, so if 
anyone can make it more simple, that is what steps are needed to acomplish the 
above task, I am eagerly awaiting your reply back!

Thank you!

Edit /etc/privoxy/config and put that line at the top.
