ACT will not handle forms-based authentication automatically. If your Web
application allows users to manually send names and passwords in form
elements, you will need to explicitly edit the query string or body of the
request to mimic a client-side form submission.

You will need to modify your script

Like this….

http://www.foo.com/login.aspx?user=...0password=12345


Thank You
