libcurl pick any it finds suitable. libcurl will automaticly select the one it
finds most secure.

.B CURLOPT_PROXYAUTH
Pass a long as parameter, which is set to a bitmask, to tell libcurl what
authentication method(s) you want it to use for your proxy authentication. If
more than one bit is set, libcurl will first query the site to see what
authentication methods it supports and then pick the best one you allow it to
use. Note that for some methods, this will induce an extra network
round-trip. Set the actual name and password with the
\fICURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD\fP option. The bitmask can be constructed by or'ing
together the bits listed above for the \fICURLOPT_HTTPAUTH\fP option. As of
this writing, only Basic and NTLM work. (Added in 7.10.7)
