There is no registry key for that check box. The checkbox is enabled if the AutoConfigUrl value exists. When disabling the checkbox, the value is removed from the registry.

However, it seems that the control panel stores the value somewhere when unchecking the box. But don't ask me where.

You can check this by changing the settings in the control panel and reading the Internet Settings registry key afterwards (or by exporting the key; the generated reg files are plain text files).
