1. Is there a way to search this thread, so that I can check without reading the whole thing whether my question has been answered?
One option that I know of (at least with IE) is to ctrl+f this brings up a finder window. You can type in a string of words, or one word and click find. Then keep clicking next to scroll through. Semi easy but it also picks up a lot of nonsense. Example search: word possible result: sword

2. Where can I find out about dual wield? Who gets it, and how? And what are the penalties? (my chars are hunter and warrior, low level)
There are no penalties to speak of for dual wielding. When doing so you should be cautious about weapon choice (not buying two Main Hand weapons etc.) Warriors if you dual wield you cant hold a shield. So the down side being less defence etc. Also you want to look at weapon stats, attack speed, and any other variables that may effect your melee.
Hunters get Dual Wield at level 20. I believe Warriors get it also at 20, but I am not positive. I believe War, Hunt, Rogue, Sham can dual wield. Not too sure about the other classes.
