Further: For quite obvious security reasons NTLM authentication should
not be perfomed over the Internet or other insecure links, and and
user-agent who willfully accepts on doing so using the users domain
account is highly insecure.

Agreed. However, sometimes a brokenness of a origin server can be
worked around in Squid.. in any event first step is to identify the
reason to why the request does not work, then one can speculate on
how to best fix it. In doing this log_mime_hdrs is a good help, so is
ngrep and friends and the HTTP specification (RFC2616)
