I installed earthlink accelerator, it worked but I decided to uninstall it. Now whenever I connect through dial up I cannot browse with internet explorer.

When I run hijackthis I can see that for some reason even though I uninstalled earthlink acclerator it's still forcing a proxy server http=localhost:8080. Before I uninstalled earthlink accelerator I disabled it and was able to browse, but when I uninstalled it, it will not browse. However if I use firefox it does work, has anyone had to manually remove whatever is causing it to keep forcing a proxy server?
