Newer versions of Mozilla can use NTLM, but IIRC it still uses a pop-up
login box like with basic auth, then encodes this into NTLM for
communicating with the server.

However, I do not use Mozilla in an environment with NTLM auth, so I do not
know how to set this up or if Mozilla will prefer NTLM over basic if
presented with both.
