Can't login to SharePoint using WebServices

I'm trying to access the files on a SharePoint-server(WOSS, 12.0.0.6421) through the WebServices but I can't sign in.

ListsService.Lists lists = new Lists(); lists.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("myusername", "mypassword", "mydomain"); lists.Url = "http://sharepointhost/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx"; XmlNode node = lists.GetListCollection(); return node.OuterXml;

But i get 401: unauthorized on GetListCollection, but the same username and password works perfectly when i access the sharepoint through a browser.

I checked the FAQ and found this: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/896861. But I'm not developing on the servering, I'm developing on another computer.

I found another thread which showed(http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointdevelopment/thread/e115f790-fe8a-45e9-982b-21833ea01c7f) but when i use that solution I get "The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Ntlm'. The authentication header received from the server was 'NTLM'." which to me just seems even more confusing.
