SSL over http instead of https

Hi list, I recently reviewed a web hosting provider, and made the assumption that due to them not having https that they were not running SSL on their login screens- therefore exposing credentials in cleartext. However after reviewing the packets it became apparent that when you entered the credentials, there was in fact a ssl handshake and the data was in fact encrypted via sslv3. Is there any logical reasoning for this- it would appear they use a IIS webserver for this purpose. Cheers
