Can I get Chrome to work with sites that use windows integrated security?

I've had success altering about:config in firefox to get firefox to work with certain intranet sites that use windows integrated security. Is there something like about:config in Chrome? Is there some other way to change a setting to enable windows integrated security (NTLM) in Chrome?

"well it's a known problem... it should be fixed in future versions...

I've found out that some proxy servers (Websense in my case) have configurations concerning the user-agent. And they actively block NTLM auth even when requested by the browser if the user-agent is not recognized (or matches some list, dunno). For example in my company, setting chrome's user-agent to a Firefox user-agent magically makes NTLM authentication work. I suggest everyone having NTLM auth problems to try changing their chrome's UA to the one of a working browser (IE ou Firefox) and see if it works. If it does, blame your company's sysadmins for doing this.

Help get this fixed: go to Google-Chrome known issues and report that you are having this issue also.
