Does anyone know of a tool or script out there that

used on IIS or ISA server. 

I know IE explorer is the only browser that supports
this auth method. Does anyone have any papers or link
on how exactly it works? Is it just tunnelled using
HTTP? Or does it use windows auth ports like TCP 139
etc?

You may take a look at fetchmail, it can make NTLM auth to IMAP servers. A
long time ago I tried to do it manually against an IIS and the same way
worked fine. I then wanted to write a patch to lynx to do ntlm auth but
never did it :(

You have to get the algorithm in fetchmail and may get some code from
fetchmail or from titi "a set of password crypters"
