Google does geolocation and will re-direct you to a localized version of 
their web pages (found this out when I was in Ecuador in September).

So it could be that either their geolocation algorithms are messed up (you 
using a cheap ISP who got an allocation of addresses from a different 
registry?) or you have a malware proxy re-direct (remember, scanners are 
in a constant arms race with malware writers - just because scans come up 
clean doesn't mean you don't have something).

Two other things to ponder...
