There is NTLM OR Basic authentication .... :-)
And transparent proxies cannot do any type of proxy authentication by design.
You can use what is called "Captive Portal" to intercept users

>2) Can Transparent proxies do other NTLM authentication methods?

No.

On this side, the major work in Squid 3.0 it's already done:
- Negotiate/Kerberos support:
http://squidwiki.kinkie.it/NegotiateAuthentication
- More NTLM code cleanup
