In mozilla, use Edit->Preferences, click on the triangle to the left of 
"Advanced" in the category list and a sub-category "Proxies" will 
appear. Click on "Proxies"

Select "Manual Proxy Configuration", enter "proxy.saudi.net.sa" in the 
"HTTP Proxy" field and "8080" in the "Port" field next to it.

Then click the "Use these settings for SSL, FTP and Gopher" button.

The press the "OK" button at the bottom. That should do.

Paul.
