Firefox changes the Proxy setting each time I run it automatically and I do not want.
Each time I run the Firefox, it chooses "Automatic Proxy Configuration URL:" with the address: "http://www.smscut.com/proxy.pac" automatically at the start-up for the option "Configure how Firefox connects to internet" in the advanced options. I would like to have "No Proxy" chosen at the start-up. How can I do this?

@ go to Help Menu -> select "Restart with Add-ons Disabled"
Firefox will close then it will open up with just basic Firefox. You can enable the Add-ons later.

Check which solution works.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Thank you for your time friends but these solutions did not work. I remember I installed the software "SonicProxy". After that I have this problem. I removed it from my computer but I still have it.

Dear Friends! None of the above solutions worked. I did something else. I make a new profile in Firefox, but I lost all my saved informations like passwords bookmarks and add-ons. You can make a new profile for your firefox in this way:
1- Close your firfox
2- Go to Start > Run
3- type there "firefox.exe -P" and push OK.
4- Now you can make a new profile and delete the previous one.
WARNING: In this way you will lose all your information like saved passwords, Add-ons and bookmarks. You can use the backup for bookmarks to have them again.
