Unfortunately for you but fortunately for all users, Windows authentication (NTLM) is a strong authentication. The password are never passed between the client and server. You can't extract it from the logon dialog between client and server. NTLM use a challenge/response protocol just for that purpose. For details about the protocol, see here: http://www.google.com/search?q=NTLM+AUTHENTICATION+PROTOCOL Contribute to the SSL Effort.
