By "basic design" do you mean you have studied enough about the HTTP protocol to actually implement creating a basic web browser?
My suggestion to you is to attempt to create a text-only web browser first, but I don't expect you'll ever complete your task. Instead I think, it will be superseded by an attempt to use the QT library's webkit to accomplish your task, or even another programming language like C# (which has a built-in drag and drop "web browser" control).
All in all I think you should rethink your solution to the problem, is having an anonymous web browser the best way to solve the problem?
It's probably leaps and bounds easier to use C# to do this, and then you don't have to deploy with all those QT DLLs that you may or may not know how to use yet.
Not to say it wouldn't be a lot of fun to use C++ though ;)
