Hi,
I received an email purporting to be from Barclays IBank and stating that due to previous technical difficulties they had to close the site but now I could go ahead and login. When I clicked the link the action you describe occurred i.e one window requesting my details and another window from Barclays. If I were a customer of Barclays I would probably have been duped. Barclays state on their website don't trust the page unless it has https which of course it had but it was called www.Barclays IBank.co.uk
