Try this: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.autom ... ow-proxies
If that doesn't work try:
about:config -> network.negotiate-auth.allow-proxies -> false

type about:config in the address bar
then in the page that is displayed search for network.negotiate-auth.allow-proxies
and then right click and select the value to false.
Very simple

Thanks for the reply but after 14 months, I doubt whether anyone is still monitoring this thread.
