This is a job for Curl. You create a Curl request that sends the login
information to the remote site in the form that it expects (usually via
some sort of post data from a form) and then you can receive the reply
back. You can then form your requests that you need to make for the
rest.

There are some great add-ons for Firefox for this sort of thing, to look
at what data is being sent to and from your browser.
