Either way, thanks for clearing that up for me. It's been bugging me for ages.

True. It was in her notes and hasn't made it into the books.

Thanks, we'll see if I remember that

It makes sense. And, just watched Goblet of Fire, so someone tell me if this isnt' in the books officially. Harry survived Avada Kedavra right? Not something you use if you're trying to make a horcrux.

Yes, Harry survived the killing curse. It's also noted that Voldemort wouldn't just pick any object for a horcrux, it would have to be special. I believe the murders he committed would have been the same-monumental and important. So then we could theorize that Harry's almost-murder might have been to create a horcrux, even though it would not have been Harry himself. I mean, Voldemort heard part of the prophecy so what better way to achieve immortality than creating a horcrux from the murder of the one you felt might stop you in your path?

So, going on the theory that a horcrux was created when Harry & Voldemort first "fought" (and it's not the scar)...I'm thinking that the "last" horcrux is something that Harry's had with him since that night, and Voldemort's battles with Harry so far is about getting the horcrux back into his control.
If this is true, then what item has Harry had with him since he was a baby and could possibly be the horcrux?

I can't think of any object that Harry's had since infancy, at least not that JKR has mentioned thus far in the books. I think the Marauder's Map and the Invisibility Cloak are all untainted. I wonder if Voldemort could have put a horcrux in the Mirror of Erised?
I do think that there is something further significant about his wand. After all, some bird gave 2 feathers for the wands to be made: 1 feather went into Voldemort's wand, and 1 feather went into Harry's, making it the "brother wand" to Voldemort's. Could the wand be a Horcrux? After all, the wand "chooses" the wizard, not the other way around. Hmmmm.......
Or maybe....since Harry was a baby at the time his parents were killed, maybe Voldemort put a horcrux into Harry's baby rattle or something, and it's in a trunk in the basement of Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia's house, or something like that?

It was actually Fawkes who gave the 2 feathers. The only two he's given.
I don't think Ollivander would have carried a wand touched by Voldemort (and horcrux'd) I dunno... i don't think there's anything Harry had that was brought with him by Hagrid to Privet Drive. He was just a bundle of baby.

I agree it's not the scar. Many people get curse scars, that's not just in Harry's case (Ron said so, I forget which book). But Harry hasn't had anything that was his since he was a baby, except the blanket he was wrapped in (long gone) and the note from Dumbledore (which was Petunia's). There's his dad's invisibility cloak, but that's been with Dumbledore until it got to Harry. So I don't know about this one. I still think that Voldy never got to make the last horcrux b/c he never succeeded in killing Harry. So maybe there'll turn out to be 5.
