    Well, now that you have made the dev site visible to the public, Google will be happy to crawl it and totally screw up your SEO as it starts serving results pointing to the dev site instead of the live site...
    I have been cleaning up a similar mess created by another developer that didn't know to hide the dev site for 6 months, as Google is slow to drop stuff no matter how hard you try to tell them to.
    So what seems strange to you has a reason when implemented by someone who has been doing this for a long time.

    Ok then how do I stop from being seen. What was in the htacess file was stopping everything and no one could see anything.

    That .htaccess change on the dev site most likely limited access to only your IP address and that of the developer who made the change.
