Default Google cache redirecting to spam site?

I was trying to look up the old version of my site on google and the cache redirected me to a site that wasnt mine. It looked like a browser hijack. I checked other websites like blackberry.com cache and those were redirected also. Do I have a virus? If so, how can I get rid of it.

That sounds like the Google redirect virus. This exploit has nothing to do with Google, but the virus does hijack the links and redirects them to other malware sites. To rid your computer of this use Combofix - Bleeping Computer Downloads: ComboFix Download

It will scan your computer for the rootkit and remove it.

Good luck.
