How can I revert Chromium proxy settings?

Recently I installed more programs, to try them out, like Wireshark and Fiddler. Some of them made changes in the system proxy settings by setting an environment variable "https_proxy" to 127.0.0.1:8888

I managed to revert this change, by deleting the environment variable from one of the system files, like ".profile". Now I could achieve that the environment variable "https_proxy" is set permanently to an empty string. Using Firefox browser it seems it doesn't connect to any local proxy any more. But when I use Chromium browser it seems it still tries to connect to 127.0.0.1: for example when I write a letter in gmail, and I click on send button, I can see a status message below "waiting for 127.0.0.1 ..."

Where should I look for settings in Chromium, or system wide, to unset any local proxy, like 127.0.0.1 ?

When I issue the command :

gsettings get org.gnome.system.proxy.http enabled

it returns "false".

But chromium still shows a status message, for example in gmail, "waiting for 127.0.0.1 ..."
