Kneasy snipped:

One possible answer is that Voldy can see through Harry's eyes,
he knows what Harry's doing. He can affect Harry's behaviour, we
know that (the urge to attack DD). But once you're in somebody's
mind, not only can you rummage through memories, influence
actions, you must know what they're doing - you're viewing it in
real-time. He saw Harry coming.

Kneasy pinched not snipped:

Harry's had a visitor.
Has he gone yet?



Snow:
I suppose you could look at this way, but I really don't think that 
possession of the mind was involved, at least not from outside 
interference, at this point. IMO
The part of Riddle/Voldemort that 
had lied dormant inside Harry since the attack at Godric's Hollow, 
that grew greater and more powerful with Harry's age and knowledge 
and had peaked at the bodily return of its counterpart; Voldemort, 
can often be seen by Dumbledore inside Harry. 
In COS Dumbledore sees the same exact traits that he had previously 
seen in Riddle when he asked each of them "Is there anything you want 
to tell me". Harry harbors an unknown visitor; that part of 
Riddle/Voldemort inside Harry that can be seen only by the superior 
legilemence Dumbledore. 
In COS again, Dumbledore had told Harry that Riddle unwillingly 
transferred powers to him but I think, no I'm sure, he neglected to 
tell Harry that that was not all that Voldemort had transferred. 
The snake part of Harry that wanted to attack Dumbledore was the part 
of Riddle/Voldemort that had been transferred to Harry (that's why 
there is a significant connection between Voldemort's emotions and 
Harry's harbored visitor) `not' Voldemort possessing Harry's vision. 

Dumbledore in OOP said to Harry that Voldemort imagined himself, in 
his own mind, to be in the Ministry and therefore that is what Harry 
had seen. The Lost Prophesy U.S. pg. 829 "Professor Snape discovered, 
Dumbledore resumed, "that you had been dreaming about the door to the 
Department of Mysteries for months. Voldemort, of course, had been 
obsessed with the possibility of hearing the prophecy ever since he 
regained his body, and as he dwelled on the door, so did you, though 
you did not know what it meant.   
This statement from Dumbledore that Voldemort dwelled on the door so 
therefore so did Harry is why I feel that Voldemort does not have 
anymore than a projection to give Harry's mind, if Voldemort thinks 
or dwells on a subject so does Harry. Voldemort did not enter Harry 
and make Harry see the Ministry, Voldemort dwelled on the Ministry to 
such extent that Harry could see where Voldemort's thoughts were. 
Hermione had reiterated a similar response initially when Harry first 
told her of what he had seen when Sirius was supposedly held captive 
at the Ministry. Harry and Hermione fought over the fact that it was 
or wasn't just a dream
as it turned out
it was just a fabricated 
dream that was, as Dumbledore had put it, something Voldemort had 
dwelled on...so did Harry.   
Harry is becoming more acute to his inner, if you will, Voldemort 
side or presence but his mother's presence is also present. In real 
life it is representative of feeling pulled in either direction. The 
voice from within that saves the soul, so to speak. Harry has been 
cursed and counter-cursed with his mother's protection and 
Riddle/Voldemort's uncalculated invasion.
