I think that it would take an extremely powerful memory charm to wipe 
out a memory of having had the fidelius charm performed.  
Unfortunately, I don't really have any specific canon to back this 
up - but memory charms have been implicated in altering the integrity 
of memory charm recipient's memories (Bertha and the muggles at the 
QWC come to mind).  My pet theory (which I will post under the 
predicition thread) concerns this very possibility (someone receiving 
the Fidelius charm followed by a memory charm).

Cheers,
Marcia
