So i turned on my PC, and instead of the normal stuff that happens, for example, the progress bar appearing under my Windows logo, i saw a light blue screen appear, the one that seems to appear if you are doing a system restore.

I remember last night i accidently clicked on a weird link on the Off Topic part of these forums, one that seemed questionable because it was probably created by an account with only 6 posts. Realizing that i might have clicked on a potentially dangerous link, i quickly clicked the stop button on my browser.

So my question is, does the light blue screen appearing mean that i might have gotten hacked, or gotten a virus?

Hard to say exactly what's causing that. Can you at all boot into Windows? Tried safe mode?
