I'm about to post a half-formed theory here, so please be patient.
We know that Harry didn't practice Occlumancy the way he was supposed
to. We know that Voldemort had enough access to Harry's mind to be
able to present ideas to Harry. What we don't know is whether or not
Voldemort took advantage of the opportunity to sort through Harry's
memories. What if he did, and one of the memories he stumbled upon
was Harry's memory of reading the note from Dumbledore telling him
where to find the Order's headquarters?
What do we know about the secret keepers? We know that the secret
keeper has to personally tell the secret to someone. We know that
Dumbledore is the secret keeper for the Order, that's why the note
was in Dumbledore's handwriting. Granted, this is a bit of a grey
area, but Voldemort could would have read the message written in DD's
handwriting, if through Harry's memory. I realize there is some room
here for debate, but if you'll accept for the moment that this would
allow Voldemort access to the headquarters, we have some interesting
possibilites here.
First of all, Voldemort would have to go to the headquarters himself,
as no other death eater actually read the note. He would witness for
himself that Snape is doing *something* for the Order--I won't get
into what. Unless he disguised himself perfectly, Moody would be
able to spot him. And I'm sure there are some things I'm
forgetting.
So, I'd like to suggest that the final show down takes place at the
Order Headquarters when Voldemort is discovered there spying.
