>>>
If a site wasnt in the results and then the index page shows up does it mean that the penalty was lifted that the rest of the site will be picked up?

Its odd since I can search for a related keyword phrase and the site comes up though when I search for the sites name plus the keyword phrase it doesnt show up in the results.
>>>

It's not possible for me to give you an answer without knowing all the details, but I'll try to provide some info that may help.

The situation you describe doesn't necessarily mean that you site was in violation and then was rereviewed. It could be that the site hadn't been crawled previously, and eventually the index page was found, crawled and included in the index.

There is no guarantee that once the index page is included, the rest of your site will be crawled. But it should increase the liklihood of the rest of your site being crawled (barring other circumstances such as a site design that isn't crawlable).

Your second paragraph does sound odd. The only thing that comes to mind is if your site's name is similar to many other sites.
