The swicth from proxy entries does'nt work on new versions of Firefox (38 and 39 tested). Only on starting the first time work correctly, if I change network (and then proxy) it was detect by program and change correcly on Internet Explorer settings, but no changes was affected on Firefox Browser.

That is not new. Firefox does not have an API to notify Firefox about settings changes from external processes. After a proxy change, you always have to restart Firefox.
