Doddiemoe here:

I think that Percy was under the imperious curse..Wormtail's one 
coniving bit of nastiness(well, probably more than a bit).  It 
simply makes sense....Percy's strange behavior since cs is more than 
just having a girl friend IMHO, he also "mother hens"-or 
mollycoddles Ginny" (he never was quite so concerned about Ron's 
health and well being that I remember).

Percy's quest to be the best and gain power (remember him reading 
about prefects who gained power).sounds a great deal like a set of 
values from Wormtail more than Mr. or Mrs. Weasley.  For all we know 
Percy may well have known Wormtail was an animagus--but never know 
his "history"..

Percy may not be a spy..but he may well be influenced by Wormtail 
who had a great deal of access to both a wand and Percy when percy 
was sleeping.  Wormtail may have had him under the imperious curse 
from time to time or ALL the time. This may well be why Percy gave 
Ron his "rat"..We're talking about a person who will not even let 
his family use the owl they bought him here!

My guess is that Percy is not a spy, but what Wormtail helped make 
over the years he lived with the Weasley family. Which may mean that 
he is more conflicted than we believe.
