I want to have Firefox use a proxy server for web browsing, and instead of using a regular server, I would like to use another computer. How would I do this? I know that I need to input the computer's IP address, but what else would I have to do to make this work?

Install and configure a proxy server on the other pc e.g "squid"

So all I would have to do to be able to use another computer as my proxy would be to install Squid onto it, then use the IP address of that computer as the address for the proxy server?
