Even though PHP 5 makes this more intuitive with keywords and real implementation of the intended functionality of protected and private properties and methods I think preceeding them with an underscore makes them easier to spot.
What if they get declared public in extending classes?
I may be wrong but I was under the impression that extended methods must have an access level equal to or more strict than the parent's method. If I am right then you wouldn't have to worry about methods with underscores ever becoming public. Scott Mattocks
