 * When I am trying to login in my admin panel I am getting this pop up. I am not
   able to figure out what will be the password for this.

 * Many hosts experienced problems due to [ mass attacks](http://blog.hostgator.com/2013/04/11/global-wordpress-brute-force-flood/)
   last year and may have limited access to wp-admin and/or wp-login.php as a result.
   Your hosts may be one of them. Try contacting them about it.

 * You mean this is not related to the wordpress login? This pop up is coming because
   my hosting provider has enable this feature somewhere.

 * Correct. That login box has absolutely nothing to do with WordPress.

 * It would seem so, yes.
