Unable to use bot on StackExchange.com domain #33

It seems like the login forms does not look the same on StackOverflow.com and StackExchange.com, making it currently not possible to use this bot on a chat.stackexchange.com

Hmm, this seems related to the Stack Exchange Chat authentication process. We are using HTMLUnit, which acts as a browser unit on its own. While Sam (poke: @ArcticEcho) has told me about a special authentication process being used in the Stack Exchange Chat (non-meta and non-SO), I doubt this is relevant. Maybe it will be an easy fix.

I also hope the login form interfaces doesn't change in later builds, otherwise automatic searching for the button may be preferable.

Ignore that one... that was meant for #34 ...
