Firestarter is a front end for iptables and may be easier to figure out. I
don't find iptables at all easy to use. However, if you just want to use a
socks proxy on web traffic you can set that up easily in firefox. I'm not
sure what other traffic you would want to proxy but if it's just web then
the firefox way is much easier.
