You have to add some command line arguments to Gw.exe when you start the game up.
The two that you need to add are -email, -character, and -password. Have a look at this link for more complete details:
From the link:
Instead of using the command line, you can execute switches directly from your Guild Wars shortcut:
1. Right click on your Guild Wars shortcut and select 'Properties'.
2. In the 'Target Area' field you will see the location of your Guild Wars executable file: "<...>\Guild Wars\Gw.exe"
3. Write the desired command line arguments after the quote marks, each beginning with a space: "<...>\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -perf -windowed

Beat me to it, by mere seconds!
I'd also note, that putting your password in plain text in a short cut is bad juju.

@Zemm that is true, especially if other people have access to your machine. – jjnguy Jul 20 '10 at 17:49

Create a shortcut to the gw.exe or edit its properties and add following options after “C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\gw.exe” -email mail(at)provider.end -character "Name Of Your Charakter" -password qwerasdf
Be aware: Your password is saved in cleartext!
Other command line options can be found on GuildWiki
