Problems with NTLM authentication

["Varley, Roger" <Ro...@atosorigin.com>]

Hi

I'm new to HttpClient and I was hoping someone could help use the NTLM authentication correctly. I have
the neccassary permissions because I can get to the site through Internet Explorer without any problem.
After seeing some discussion of problems with with NTLM in -rc1 I've upgraded to -rc2 but I still cannot
connect to the host www.theregister.co.uk.

I'm getting the error message;
"WARNING: No credentials available for the 'null' authentication realm at www-proxy2.uk.int.atosorigin.com"

My code is below. I'm probably doing somethnig stupid, but I'd be grateful for any pointers as to 
what I'm doing wrong

Regards
Roger Varley
