Hidden Products still getting ordered

[fuzzie bear]

Has anyone had this problem ?

I have products that when they go out of stock and I know they're not returning - I tick the box to hide them on website.

However for some reason people are still ordering these items - I can't understand how ???

An example is this product
Lightening Ball - Classic (P)(C1535W)

I marked it up out of stock months ago and a couple of days ago someone ordered one....

Its because the pages still exist on the server and are indexed by google so people find them via a search and can order. To make sure that this cannot happen you will need to delete the pages on the server using ftp.
