Another issue is that MS proxy uses NTLM (NT Login Manager) to
authenticate you onto an MS Proxy. With IE your login Info is sent
through transparently, but a Unix browser does not have this facility.

Under Windows, Netscape will pop up a login window, but under Linux,
anything may happen dependant on your browser. 

Hope this helps
