A:
The urlopen function supports proxies. Try something like this:
urllib.urlopen(your_url, proxies = {"http" : "http://192.168.0.1:80"})

How would I use a proxy from http://www.primeproxies.com/ with this method?

Well, since those sites are not proxy servers you would require a very different solution. Technically a proxy server is a machine on your network that relays all internet traffic.

You could look at PycURL. I use cURL a lot in PHP and i love it. Though there is probably a neat way to do this currently in Python.
