Sorry for somewhat late reply, I have a few comments. The negotiateauth 
extension should compile with MIT as well, however, I haven't tryied 
yet. The page mentioned above contains a link to a compiled version of 
the extension built on Linux/i386, which can be easily installed to your 
Mozilla-based browser (and even if the authentication framework in 
Mozilla still requires some work -- see discussion at 
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17578 -- the extension works 
on Mozilla 1.5, 1.6a)
