The only reasons for that to happen are:

  1. You have a $live_site in your configuration.php file. You are given the option to change (or empty it — recommended!) during restoration, in the Site Setup page.
  2. You have code in your .htaccess file, either in your site's root or the administrator directory, which causes this redirection. You are given the option to remove that code during restoration in the Site Setup page; look at the upper right part of the main content area of that page.
  3. You have a third party plugin doing this redirection. This is very uncommon. If this is the case you need to rename the plugin's folder. Which plugin would that be? I don't know, as I don't know how your site is made.
