This is an interesting theory, but we probably need more canon 
support for it to work.  Are there other instances in which Harry 
hears a voice in his head?  I can't think of any.  There are a number 
of times when he has the weird feeling of being watched, but 
sometimes those occasions have other explanations, such as Moody 
really is watching Harry in the maze.  

Also, if Voldemort can communicate with Harry through the scar, 
Voldemort should also have been telling Harry to spare Wormtail, not 
to knock out Snape, not to Stun Krum, to take the Cup, etc.  Why just 
the one instruction to kill Black, particularly at a time when 
Voldemort was weaker than he was in GoF?

Lastly, I don't recall that Dumbledore seemed triumphant upon 
learning that Harry's scar pain had ceased.  Harry reports his scar 
burning upon his return to the entrance of the maze (burning "dully 
on his forehead").  Have I missed something?
