I use no proxy but when I run the program "Hide My IP" Firefox detects the changed IP address and changes the Proxy settings. How can I get Firefox to keep the "No Proxy" setting?

If you run a program or install an extension that changes the connection settings to use a proxy then you can't expect otherwise.
If you want to revert to No Proxy if you start Firefox then you can create a file user.js or add lines to an existing user.js to set the connection setting to No Proxy. 

user_pref("network.proxy.type",0);
