I presume you mean a SharePoint 2010 forms authentication site where userid and password are to be provided. Check the code snippet below - you'll have to check exception value below and handle the exception accordingly (cancel login, etc). See the FormsAuthenticationLoginInfo class for more info.

try {
ClientContext fooCtx = new ClientContext(fooSiteUrl); 
fooCtx.AuthenticationMode = ClientAuthenticationMode.FormsAuthentication; 
fooCtx.FormsAuthenticationLoginInfo = new FormsAuthenticationLoginInfo(fooUserName, fooUserPwd); 
}
catch (Exception fooE) {... }
