Is there a plugin or extension in FF to toggle using your VPN client on or off?

From the log:
extensions\addon@astrill.com
 
There was an astrill extension in Firefox. I removed it. FF still not working. I uninstalled FF, reinstalled it. FF still not working...
 
I think something is wrong with my proxy setting... that seems to be the reason why Avira will not update. I have also uninstalled Astrill, but it didn't help. Here's a log from Avira:

The update failed!
 
Try rebooting your modem, router and computer by powering them off then back on if you havent done that yet. Take a look in device manager and click the plus sign next to Network adapters and see if there is a yellow ! showing up.
If you go to start and copy paste in the search box then click ok or enter:

devmgmt.msc

Device manager should open up.
Did you install Astrill yourself, or is this a company owned machine?
 
Just looked at device manager, there is no yellow ! showing up. I installed Astrill myself, this is not a personal computer not company machine.
 
Take a look in network connections and see what it looks like. Do you see your vpn connection listed? See screenshot, its XP not W7.

Also take a look here. See if it helps any.
 
I have already uninstalled Astrill. I looked at the network connections window but there's no such thing as a VPN connection.
 
I know you uninstalled VPN, I posted the link so you could check any settings that might have been changed and might still remain after the uninstall.
Could it be one of your security programs, do you have a software firewall installed? You could consider doing a system restore back to a point where everything was working.
