NTLM requires it. Yes, it's broken, but it doesn't work without. See this=20
message from Martijn yesterday morning:
http://lists.kde.org/?l=3Dkfm-devel&m=3D113587597831864&w=3D2

What I don't understand is if NTLM requires the header or persistent=20
connections. Or both.

355327     gyurco     if ( m_bPersistentProxyConnection )
355327     gyurco       header +=3D "Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n";

=46ix http NTLM proxy authentication:
=2D Only try NTLM auth when persistent connection to proxy selected.
=2D Some missing checks for proxyAuthentication added.
=2D Send Proxy-Authorization: NTLM only in the initial handshaking, this=20
prevents
sending NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE header in every request.
=2D Send Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive header if persistent connection to the
proxy server selected.
Tested with NTLM-enabled Squid-2.5. I feel that NTLM http authentication=20
will
require some fix, too.
