Is it possible to write a script which will set a stored username/password
into Internet Explorer?
It is not clear what you want. Do you want to set IE so that when you run
it, it will run under the credentials of a different account? If so, the
preferred method would be to start IE using runas. This will, of course,
require that the user enter the alternate password.
If you want users to run under the credentials of an account whose password
should not be shared with them, there are "runas" tools available to do such
a thing. But there are security risks involved with most of these,
especially when the account used is privileged.
