Exactly. Anyhow, this only would fill in the login fields with the given 
values, but not automatically log you on, since these values aren't 
passed from the login page to the server. Instead, hashes are being 
transmitted - at least for the pass.

Have a look at misc/superadmin.php if you really need to automate the 
login process. You should _at any cost_ secure that script, better yet 
only put it in place if you really need it.

Greets,
