Now if I use ntlmaps to map the request to proxy the java applet works properly.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open mozilla or Firefox 
2. go to http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
3. It doesn't work.
4. If you configure ntlmaps and set the proxy conf to its the applet will work.

I didn't think the Java plugin even knew how to authenticate using NTLM.  Does
this work in IE?

Can you generate a Mozilla HTTP log for us?  You can do that using an ordinary
Firefox release build by following the steps here:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/netlib/http/http-debugging.html

Then please attach the resulting log file to this bug report by using the
"Create a New Attachment" link above.  Thanks!!
