Can someone please tell me how to pass the username and password in the link to the site? I want to link it in my IE as my default IE homepage and automatically login from my computer.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Theoretically, member.php?action=login&username=Boofo&password=your unhashed password.

Naturally, it's extremely dangerous, though, because your password will be stored, unencrypted, in an easily accessible location on your hard drive.

Actually I was trying to do it to the admin cp and couldn't get it to work right. It keeps the ?action=login&username=Boofo&password=your unhashed password in the link after login and goes to a blank page. I guess I'd better not go that route because of it not being at all secure in any way. Thanks for the reminder. ;)
