How to remove proxy from WebRequest and leave DefaultWebProxy untouched

try setting the proxy to an empty WebProxy, ie:

request.Proxy = new WebProxy();

This should create an empty proxy.

Actually setting it to null will be enough as well to disable auto proxy detection, you might save some cycles :)

request.Proxy = null;
