I uninstalled an Add-On, but it continues to reset my proxy settings to manual every time I launch, causing firefox to not connect to the internet.

I recently tried the add on ZenMate, and hated it, so I quickly uninstalled it. However, it now ALWAYS changes my proxy settings to manual, inserts it's own script, and causes firefox to not connect on startup. Even if I change it back to no proxy or any other setting, upon restarting firefox, it still resets it to it's script.

Can anyone help? I have uninstalled it completely, tried finding any traces of it in the registry or elsewhere to no avail. I can't manually change every single time I want to start firefox as you can imagine.
