socks proxy macOS localhost 8080 not unchecked

Every time my iMac is restarted after unchecking socks proxy , it is re-checked again. What to do in order to have a permanent solution that the proxy server keeps unchecked?

I used the EtreCheck app from the App Store: run the check. Two major issues were discovered: adware. I used the instructions of this app to remove these. After restarting, the problem is solved.
