Restore the directory "redirect.to" off of a backup tape and see what was in the directory. From google, it sounds like this is used by Apache to redirect broken links to another site. If your Apache directory tree was "writeable", it is possible someone could have put a redirect meta tag there.

Sorry I don't have any recent Apache experience. Maybe somebody else can help you. I'm with wmorri, some security agency should have been ignored. If they call again, ask for a name and phone number, then you look them up and call back to see if they are legit.
