If the server behind the proxy requires authentication set properties
Username, Password and ServerAuth. 

If the proxy requires authentication set properties ProxyUsername, 
ProxyPassword and ProxyAuth.

Both proxy and server might support multiple authentication types.
Event BeforeAuth (ICSv7) triggers for each type they support.

Note that NTLM and Digest require persistent connections to work,
forgot to mention that yesterday.
That means properties ProxyConnection and/or Connection should
be set to "keep-alive" at least with HTTP v1.0.

Server authentication can be tested against the OverbyteIcsWebServ 
demo (Delphi). There are free NTLM proxies downloadable from the 
internet. 

A member of this list suggested this one:
3proxy (http://3proxy.ru/board/?l=EN)
Console app with manually edited conf files, but in part of auth settings are 
quite simple
