Are you talking about the site currently in your profile? Fool?

Some sites use cgi redirect URLs to track the visitors they send to advertisers.
If the URLs are /robots.txt protected then Google has no content to index at these addresses, but they do have good inbound links so it just lists the URL.

They are a large financial site. Like ciml said they are probably using the sub for tracking.
