Answer 1

I made it by using squidman on Mac. It's easy to set up and use.
I set it up in 5 minutes by following this article.

Another thing is if you want to connect to the websites running on proxy server, in my case it's my Mac, you need to comment this line out in squidman->Preferences->Template

# protect web apps running on the proxy host from external users
# http_access deny to_localhost
