I use the following method: 
- login in a browser
- export the cookies for the website using anything that lets you get a
Netscape-style cookies.txt
- drop the cookies.txt into the project folder, same place that hts-log.txt
calls home
- make sure the logout link is not in download scope
- start httrack in whatever way you do it, I don't think command-line vs
graphical makes a difference here...

(From the manual:  
-bN    accept cookies in cookies.txt (0=do not accept,* 1=accept)
(--cookies[=N])
so it should pick up the cookie file by default, without any further
instructions)
