Mozilla based browsers support NTLM, AFAIK. Here at work, there are a lot of Intranet apps that require AD authentication, and when I hit them with Firefox, I get a un/pw dialog, and I am allowed in after I enter my network credentials. Of course, in IE the user doesn't see the dialog, they just get in (if they are already authenticated on the AD domain). It would be nice if this were seamless in Firefox as well, but at least it works. :)
