Now there was one access with a referrer pointing to some kind of 
database containing links to movie downloads (yes, the large file I 
mentioned was a trailer). Along with the link there was the info that 
the link came from an irc channel in irc (quakenet).

So the mysterie is partly resolved (regarding the fact where all those 
people came from). What still remains is the question how the first 
person found the file there...

It would provide this information in the referrer, this is how I found 
the link database. :)
