I went to my WP admin address which is:
foreclosure-defense-solutions.com/wp-admin and when I hit enter nothing came up. It was not until I erased the admin and typed in login that this really weird address came up:
http://foreclosure-defense-solutions.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fforeclosure-defense-solutions.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fthemes.php%3Factivated%3Dtrue&reauth=1
It seems that i am being redirected, and I have not done anything on my hosting account to signal a redirect. I did however download a plugin to arrange the admin menus to my liking. Can there be malicious things going on from the plugin? I am afraid to enter in my name and PW to this new redirected URL. Anyone know why this would happen?

I believe what you're seeing is normal. When I type in the address for the login page of a wordpress site (www.wordpresssite.com/wp-admin), I get a similar string of nonsense after it. However, if you go to the admin logged out page (www.wordpresssite.com/wp-login.php?loggedout=true), it doesn't add it. I tried it for your site too, and it was the same.
Someone could probably explain why the wp-admin redirects, but I don't think you're in any hacking danger.

I had reset my passwords to multiple WP sites that I log into. This is the only one that is giving me an issue. Seems that after I reset the PW, it will go to open the admin page but just stops loading and displays a white page. Do I need to completely reinstall WP? The site still displays.
