Enclosing the username and password in quotes made to difference.
----------------------
I changed then the url-to-get (without the proxy switch and username switch)
to http://194.249.218.67/html/financni_podatki/dnevni/tecajna_lista.asp to
avoid name server.

Now the return error is:
curl: (7) Can't connect to server: 2
----------------------
The headers when using proxy switch look like this:

COMMAND:
GET http://194.249.218.67/html/financni_podatki/dnevni/tecajna_lista.asp
HTTP/
1.0
Proxy-authorization: Basic encodedusernameandpassword
User-Agent: curl/7.1 (win32) libcurl 7.1.1
Host: 194.249.218.67:80
Pragma: no-cache
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */*

RESPONSE:
HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy authentication required Proxy-Authenticate: NTLM
Content-Length: 503 Content-Type: text/html

The curl batch file looked like this:

curl -v -i -o "c:\program files\curl\tecaji.htm" -U "username":"password" -x
server1:80
http://194.249.218.67/html/financni_podatki/dnevni/tecajna_lista.asp

where server1 is the name of my MSproxy server and 80 the port I use.
