Is this typo also in your code? Please attach your code for questions 
like this.

I use this code inside the __init__.py:

<code>
from AccessControl import ClassSecurityInfo
from Globals import InitializeClass
from Products.CMFCore.CMFCorePermissions import myPermission
from Products.CMFCore.PortalFolder import PortalFolder


PortalFolder.security = ClassSecurityInfo()

def myMethod(self):
     pass

PortalFolder.security.declareProtected(myPermission, 'myMethod')
PortalFolder.myMethod = myMethod

InitializeClass(PortalFolder)
</code>


And as Raphael already mentioned: Make sure you have a working reindex 
method.


HTH,
