I made a typo once and went to fake google site . You have on screen
www.google.com. < Remove the . from the end
Didn't help - when I type www.google.com - I get taken to https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl

https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl
from what I know Google switched to that months ago
My home page is been on that link for months
The reason for this is that Google is using the more secure https:// instead of their previous http://.
When you attempt to access Google through any HTTP URLs the Google DNS servers redirect you to the HTTPS URL. What are you seeing is information stating as much appended to the URL which reads as follows.
https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl https://www.google.com/?Google web server_redirect=secure socket layer
