This has been discussed at length quite recently. Was there an agreed 
upon answer? Don't remember. Probably not.

My hunch, however, is that the Fidelius charm is not the answer. 
Harry's protected at the Dursleys because they are his blood 
relatives (ref?). It is some kind of ancient magic that JKR is 
purposely leaving vague at the moment, IMO.
Knowing her MO (acronym of?) that would mean that it will be fully 
explicated in the future and will probably play an important part in 
the plot. Remember Azkaban?
