Tried to edit the proxy configuration on the browser with about:config. I can specify the socks proxy IP (127.0.0.1) but when I try to specify the port it won't let me change the value from 0.

Anyone else have any better luck?

Thanks
Tried editing the proxy settings under "Internet Connections" in Settings?
