You posted a similar message earlier using that same helper program for
basic auth. Basic auth helpers and NTLM auth helpers work in completely
different ways - you can't just change the auth type in squid.conf and keep
using the same auth program.

Furthermore, NTLM requires a Windows-style domain to authenticate against.
Unless you have such a domain already and want to integrate Squid's
authentication with it, don't bother with NTLM.
