All the data is being passed in the encrypted format, so it is impossible to search for something without knowing the key already. Most applications create a higher level approach of announcing the key once it has been inserted, and thus having the ability to search. For example look at the way Thaw does it, a person creates a Thaw index, and announces the key of that index, after that the inserts are being added to that index, and thus other people (after updating the published index) can search it for whatever they wish. Frost has a file queues which act as one global list of files that have been inserted, and thus allowing the search. In short, yes, it is possible to search for something if the person who has inserted that file wants it to be searchable, but that is not integrated into Freenet, but rather is done by the applications using Freenet. > 2.
