Cannot login to my Wordpress Control Panel?

I suddenly cannot login to my Wordpress control panel. I can still navigate to the site but get a 500 error trying to login to the back end. Did get a malware warning that two of the pictures on the site had a problem. Was in the process of removing them. This happened once or twice yesterday but I got in OK today until now. Any ideas?

    A '500 error' usually indicates a server error. There is little reason that you should be able to see the 'home' page but not be able to view the page at wp-admin (unless you have made changes to file permissions or .htaccess changes.

    I'd recommend waiting a few hours incase the host is having a problem and then contacting your host if all is still not o.k.
