It is unclear to me what is happening here, but here are some things to
think about.

Do you have a saved login cookie for the list?

Can anyone from any computer get to list admin pages via google, or
just from your computer?

Does the google link have a query part with adminpw=?

Have you tried changing the list password?

What happens if you click the 'logout' link on an admin page?
