    Open Proxy problem

    Hey guys,
    So I have this one little problem. Not too long ago, I tried to set up my computer as a proxy server so I can bypass some firewalls at school (long breaks, need something to do ) But that was a failure so I thought nothing of uninstalling it. But now when I go on IRC servers using mIRC, they won't let me connect because I have an open proxy of some sort.
    I can only remember some of the programs I used trying to set up a proxy server:
    cygwin
    sockpuppet
    wingate (uninstalled)
    WinVNC (I think I uninstalled)

    cygwin is only a folder and executable files, but when I tried to delete the folder, it tells me that cygcrypt-0.dll is in use and I can't remove it.

    Is there some way to remove this open proxy that I can't find?


    Edit: Here is what I get when I tried to connect.

    Code:
    * Connecting to irc.rizon.net (6665)
