Axel has a configuration file. This sits either in $HOME/.axelrc or in /etc/axelrc. In this file the proxy is configured. Look for a line starting with http_proxy. The line probably reads http_proxy = http://127.0.0.1:8118. Remove it or place a # in front of the line. Now axel 'forgets' about the proxy and uses a direct connection.

If you find no such setting there might also be a shell variable called http_proxy. Just open a terminal and type echo $http_proxy. If you see a valid proxy, axel will also try to use it. Just unset the variable and axel will also use a direct connection.
