Chosen solution

You can not use the Windows registry to disable items in Firefox. This link shows how to lock down Firefox proxy settings, change the values to suit your needs: http://www.stbernard.com/ip5kb/iPrism/WhatsNew/50SupportFiles/SupportFiles/IP0460.htm

One minor variation, in step 4 instead of adding that line to all-js, you can create a file called local-settings.js containing the line shown and save the file in the same folder as all.js
