Additionally, the theory is that VAC2 checks (somehow) for specific cheat programs running.

I would imagine they use some sort of hash-code "dictionary" of known cheat programs...  Which makes me wonder if he's certain that no other memory editing software was used.

Alright, I'm assuming that they only scan your memory, not your hard-drive, which is what you agreed to.  It detected something that it recognized as a memory hacking tool (You didn't have cheat-o-matic running did you?) and banned you.  I mean, as long as you can send them a link to the programs you feel may have produced the false positive, I see no reason for them to not lift the ban.  Just make sure you are polite and give them all the information you can.  If you were running some other memory editing utility, though, like o-matic... You're probably screwed.
