Not sure if this would do the trick, but that is how I read it:

Taken from: http://mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.6/README.html#new

Mozilla 1.6 includes a new cross-platform NTLM authentication mechanism.
This feature brings NTLM authentication to the non-Windows Mozilla users
for the first time and also delivers more robust and featureful NTLM
support to users of older Windows versions.

Anyone know for sure if this will authenticate against an MS Proxy?
