logging onto a website on an external server

I tried using WebRequest, but I am unable to simply
redirect to an external aspx site and supply the userid and password and
press their login button.

I got the webrequest to populate a webresponse and copy the website onto
our server. That doesn't do any good.
What I need to do is get the viewstate, add the login information and
postback to the external site. The password needs to be encrypted or
hidden.

I haven't had any luck.

I spent an hour at Barnes & Noble looking for a book that could help.
No luck.

This sounds so easy to do, but I am totally clueless.

Anyone have suggestions?
Thanks,
