This will only work if the form works with HTTP GET, not if it's an HTTP
POST.
Servers Alive only works with HTTP(S) GET and NOT with HTTP(S) POST.

(an HTTP(S) POST add-on is something we will do after the release of v4)
(well add-on or change in the current HTTP checks)

Depending on how the page is written, you can sometimes get by with
passing the form variables in the URL, like this:

http://mysite/login.asp?username=Bryon&password=MyPwd

The "username" and "password" strings must be the exact same name as
the form fields that you're logging into.  If the page is a public
one, let me know and I can give you the URL to use.  If not, I can get
more specific.
