There also seems to be:
http://code.google.com/p/python-ntlm/

Which is a library for handling proxy authentication using NTLM. It
looks like it would be as simple as hooking that library into our
existing urllib2 authentication schemes.

Looking at that page, you may need
"http://domain\user:password@proxy_host:port".

I certainly don't know the specifics of what NTLM would expect. And it
looks like we would probably need to add the HTTPNtlmAuthHandler anyway.
