    Is there a way to see in clear-text what searches are coming in?
    I see OS_HASH_SEARCH, and assume they are encrypted. I just want to make sure.

    But how does the program use a hash to search all the different key words? It would have to make a hash for each word in a file name and then compare the hashes with incoming searches. At some point, is a friend's search in cleartext on my computer? Is the only way to see them to debug the code? If this is trivial for a java programmer to do, why not have it available for everyone?

    Maybe OS_HASH_SEARCH is used when searching for file hash sums. (for example to find more sources of the same file).

    Where do you see OS_HASH_SEARCH? I tried to search the full source, but didn't find it..

    I'm seeing OS_HASH_SEARCH when looking at Classic UI> Friend Connections tab> source message heading
