Reading you and looking at your screenshot a 2nd time made me think that I was 
wrong in thinking that the dialog was related to the Eclipse proxy. If the host 
you see was your SVN host then the closest guess is that there must be some SVN 
setting left in your workspace (as Max pointed out) that must be triggering 
some SVN plugin. 

You mention SVN preferences, so you definitely have a SVN plugin installed. 
Since you're sure abourt subclipse not being available you must be running 
Subversive, the SVN plugin that's part of the Eclipse distribution ( 
http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/ http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/). 
Whenever the popup shows up make sure it's focused and hit "Alt+Shift+F1". The 
plug-in spy would then also tell you what plugin is prompting you.You can 
verify this in your JBSD via Help->About JBoss Developer Studio->Installation 
Details->Plug-Ins and scroll trough the list and look for "SVN Team provider". 
The presence of a SVN perspective in your JBDS would definitely also confirm 
this.  
Back to the cause of being prompted I'd reiterate over what Max pointed out 
above: my guess is that the project you're editing still had SVN settings in 
it, causing Subversive to try to connect to your host. Did you verify that 
there are no ".svn" folders in your project any more? I'd very much think that 
using the old workspace with the project featuring .svn folder was causing 
those prompts since re-importing those into a fresh workspace solve it.

Cheers
André
