User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:34.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/34.0
Build ID: 20141126041045

Steps to reproduce:

I use a sock5 proxy running on port 53 with no authentication. It was working fine till a few months ago. 

1- At first I was using FoxyProxy. My connections started to fail. So I thought the problem was with foxyproxy addon. I completely uninstalled and cleaned every Mozilla directory from my system.
2- Reinstalled Mozilla from scratch. This time no addon is installed. 
3- In Network settings Porxy is defined as manual proxy xxx.xxxx.co.uk 53 with remote dns. Ne connection is available.
4- In Network settings I define the proxy as use system defined proxy. Still no connection is available.
5- If I use the same settings with Internet Explorer which uses System Settings everything works fine.
6- This bug is only for Windows. I switched to Lubuntu 14.10. Firefox with foxyproxy works fine with the same computer.


Actual results:

Firefox addon Foxyproxy fails to work with SOCK5 proxy. After a clean Firefox installation without Foxyproxy, Firefox definition of SOCK5 proxy fails to work in windows. Firefox definition of system proxy settings fail to work in windows. 
All these problems are gone in Linux. 


Expected results:

Sock5 proxy with no authentication and remote dns settings should work as it is working in Linux version
My socks proxy (ssh tunnel) is working fine with FIrefox34 on windows7
