Google's Bad Site Box?

I had a client who purchased a "must have" domain name from a squatter
about a few months ago. We built a new site on the domain and
submitted the site to Google.

When you search on the domain name itself it does come up - with the
old title tags from the original owner:"insertdomainhere.com - is for
Sale!"

Which indicates to me that despite the submission the spiders have
never been back to visit the site.

The domain was obviously indexed prior to my submission. I get the
feeling that Google put this site in the "bad site" box prior to my
client purchasing it, and will not redindex its new content because it
resides in the "bad site" box or in a different database.

I know Google doesn't do anyone any "favors" - does anyone have any
suggestions of what I can do to get the site out of the bad site index
and back into the main index?

Thanks in Advance.

Submissions work extremely slow. Did you make good links to the site? PR6
PR7?

Email them, look in the archive of this group for more info. I would try
the link(s) first (email me), if not in Google in 2-3 days, email them.

General advice: You can't get good advice about a site from
alt.internet.search-engines without revealing the URL of the
site. There are some real experts here, but they need to look
at what's on the site and what links to it to give a good answer.
