Qt has calculating of NTLMv1 challenges and will answer requests. However, 
there's no integration with Windows SSPI, meaning the credentials must be 
given in response to an authenticationRequired() or 
proxyAuthenticationRequired() signal by the application itself.

There's an open task (whose number I don't remember, sorry) about adding 
this functionality.
