If the url option below works for you that might be easiest (our developers did something that prevented it from working). Otherwise this is how i got around the issue in firefox ( http://watirmelon.com/2012/06/27/automatic-firefox-authentication-when-using-selenium-webdriver-with-autoauth/). The gist is that you create a firefox profile and start the browser with that profile. Something similar might be possible for chome, i haven't played around with it yet since we don't support chrome for our application.
I don't have a solution for ie (i was using a local vm that hadn't been picking up on my active directory login).
