Belisarius is on a distinguished road
What you're looking for is actually something called "screen scrapping". You might be able to get by with a Windows port of a Unix tool called "cURL", but I don't know the details of the website you're logging onto.

At a glance, I'd say you'd either need to learn to program - Perl or (probably more appropriately) PHP would be a good place to start. Or hire a programmer to do it for you. Screen-scraping have never struck me as something that can really be modularized, so there probably aren't tools that a non-programmer can use so accomplish it. Because of the rather custom nature of websites, they'll all be different, and therefore you'd need to create a custom script to process them.
