There is a default texture. It's deffined as follow:

texture{pigment{rgb 0}finish{diffuse 0.7 ambient 0.1}}

What you see when there is no light is the effect of the ambient part of that 
default texture.
If you also used built-in textures and finishes from the various INC files, 
there are some textures that have prety high ambient values.

You can change that default as follow:

#default{finish{ambient Some_Ambient diffuse Some_Diffuse}}

You can affect all ambient lighting in the global_settings block:

global_settings{ambient_lights rgb<1, 0.8, 0.6>}

The above will give a redish tint to EVERY objects that have any ambient value 
in ther finish, even if only the default one.
