Damien is 50% right. You can't get windows credentials from any internet
user. But both IE and mozilla on windows support http auth negotiate. IE for
same active directory hosts out of the box, and in both you can add
exceptions.

I know it, because I worked in a web single sign on project for a company
intranet. The mechanism is called SPNEGO. Other guy in the project
integrated it with jass and/or acegui, but I don't remember too much.
