Default
The problem you're having is that you're trying to conditionally display a hyperlink, not vary it. Aside from your field coding being incorrect, Word will always output a hyperlink with such a field (even an ostensibly empty one consisting of just a space). The correct field coding is:
{HYPERLINK "{IF{Mergefield Variable}= "Y" "http://www.google.com" " "}"}
Note the difference in spacing in the field code.
