Using SSH Tunnel to connecting the internet

Will the idea is using the SSH secure channel for browsing the internet how we do that:

First we need to connect to our SSH domain BUT using the -D option with the port 8080

will : ssh root@the-ip -D 8080

and then in the fire fox browser all we need to do is :

Edit >> Preferences >> Advanced >> Network >> Sittings >> Manual proxy configuration >> and change

the SOCKS Host to : 127.0.0.1 and the port to 8080

That is it now you can browsing the internet in a secure mode !!
