Probably an SSL issue, and yours is set up very different from ours so I have no idea on that.
Speaking of SSL, here is a recent thread on that (note RodG's theory):

SSL has always been one of our main causes of issues, usually dealing with red x's and the IE9 security pop-up. I think RodG noted that SSL can cause more problems than SSL is worth. I personally use PayPal Express on my main site below, so have never had to deal directly with SSL other than on my sister's sites.
I doubt that installing a trouble-shooting template will solve the problem (although you might try.) And if you are certain that the Classic template still works with this strange-to-me SSL login, then you may be correct and might contact your host on the template/SSL issue.
