('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) >From the tests I've done last week, I can confirm that Burp Proxy effectively deals with the NTLM authentication problem. What is more interesting is that even without fixing the NTLM credentials, the browser works with NTLM authentication. This behaviour might suggest that the HTTP headers introduced by other proxies might really explain why the NTLM authentication might not work with a proxy.

It does not explain though why it works in my testing scenario. I'll be testing it with Burp and other proxies in the next days and will post my results back.
