HTL also affects how "deep" a message goes into Freenet. If you send a request to Node A and Node A doesn't have what you're looking for, Node A will forward your request to a node it thinks has what you are requesting and decrement the HTL on your message as it forwards your message. This continues until either the HTL expires or some other conditions I can't remember. I think HTL also gets decremented on each attempt to forward a message out of the same node, but I am not sure of that.
