How could this page be indexed ?

Hi all,

I recently added a subdir with PHP files to my site, while no link AFAIK
could possibly be pointing at it. So I didn't bother to disallow it in
robots.txt at first.
Yet google, yahoo and msn retrieved those pages...
This even brought me some some visitors.
I tried the search done by a visitor picked from my logs but did not get
to my site.
Also I had "Options -Indexes" in the .htaccess file.

Has someone a clue ?

Regards,

AO
