Well, that was probably the reason why you thought the sponsor was still present but hidden and hijacking and all... The Keyword.URL in Firefox is just a setting which controls the keyword search. So you may remove every program from your computer, the setting will still be there, since it is just an URL. And since users can change that at their will at any time, the 'old' value is not stored. Hence it can not be restored automatically after you uninstall the sponsor; you need to do that manually.
