What I was trying to say was that you can use Microsoft Intergrated 
Login (NTLM) as proxy authentication while at the same time using 
Basic authentication to the web server.

The patch was included in the daily snapshots the day it appeared on 
the patches page (or shortly before). This is also true for all other 
patches found on that page..

The best action is to have the web server reconfigured to also allow 
"Plain text" authentication (which is good old standard Basic HTTP 
authentication). This will allow the web site to be used via proxies 
or with other web browsers than MSIE such as Netscape / Mozilla / 
Opera / whatever..

But even if that is not possible all hope is not lost. There exists a 
third-party proxy which can act as a Basic->NTLM authentication 
gateway. See 'NTLM Authorization Proxy Server'
