Sweet, isn't it?

I've generally had the opposite problem (programs had problems with 
basic auth; work fine with NTLM). I've developed a workaround which 
may work for you, too. I'll integrate my example with your squid.
conf:

acl noauth dst [IP Address]
acl lonsdaleall proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow noauth
http_access allow lonsdaleall

The order of the acl lines doesn't matter, but the order of the http_access 
lines does. Substitute [IP Adress] for the IP Addresses of the Adobe 
Web Capture servers.

Oh, and report a bug to Adobe, also.

As to your other question, I've never had that problem. But then,
we're all on IE 5.5, and XP uses 6.0.
