   Most browsers have some setting for a proxy server which you can alter to   
   make them use tor.   
      
   But yes, a solution like tor does affect the speed. "Speed" is about two   
   things, bandwidth and latency. With tor you will suffer from the   
   bandwidth of the slowest node that you happen to jump by and your latency   
   will increase with a factor that roughly equals the number of nodes that   
   you pass by.
