I would expect that there is a way to auto-login a user from a URL by encrypting their username and password and passing them into a vBulletin "log user in" url/webpage. This is how I would do it, but I don't know vBulletin well enough to tell you specifics. And if such a page does not exist in vBulletin, you should be able to add one without a lot of trouble, I'd hope/expect.
