You have a lot of toolbars. I'd go into Safe Mode and run a full scan with malwarebytes and see if it gets rid of this one... in the past I've seen a ProxyServer entry along with the ProxyOverride which is bad, but I don't think that entry alone is causing problems..... might get a second opinion, but I think you're okay to delete it.

I don't know any reason why you'd ever have a localhost ProxyOverride. Whether it's causing problems now or not, I can't say, but I'm pretty sure it was put in there by something nasty at one point or another. So...second opinion...delete it.
