    This isn't my website, but is it against TOS to make a website like that? The reason I'm asking is because you can't conduct anymore searches on it and get a message saying they've been banned!

    I was about to create a site for that as well....:(

    Google has a free search which I can use and when traffic is at it's peak, I could probably sell the site or offer a sponsored link on the top right and make it like the Google layout

    You read my threads :D I'm honored!

    Hehe :) You got 2 clicks in a row from latest threads :D

    I think the problem with uZoogle is that it doesnt count as actual content and google caught on to this. It was an idea with a slight cool twist to it. Having the site based around the google adsense search has been done before, dont remember the websites though off the top.

    what a coincidence!

    Here are two more:
    http://007google.com/mygoogle.asp
    sherlocco.com

    They are bigger than uZoogle from what I heard and they didn't get banned?

    I sent them an E-Mail and opened up a thread in their "AdSense Help" Group, hopefully I get an answer soon!

    Otherwise I might just hunt down the owner and ask him lol..

    Yeah, who knows what happened. I mean it depends from site to site. Many sites get away with stuff that others get banned for. It's never a solid law that everyone obeys. Who knows maybe that site had invalid clicks on another site, or this site itself.
