Here is a great little python script that will format all proxy
requests into a NTLM MS proxy format.  They also include a bunch of
information on the format on their website.

http://apserver.sourceforge.net/ -- Python script to create a proxy
to get through MS proxy

http://www.innovation.ch/java/ntlm.html  -- NTLM Documentation that
was used to create APServer

APServer is the only way I have found to allow my Linux boxes outside
of our Microsoft network.  If you download python for Windows you can
also run Netscape through the proxy :)

Unfortunately, I haven't figured out how to get through the firewall
portion of the proxy.  I can only use port 80.  I have unsuccessfully
been playing with Desproxy for TCP tunneling through HTTP proxies. 
If anyone has a different method for tunneling outside of port 80, I
would appreciate it.  I don't have broadband at home, so I can't use
a box outside of the proxy.
