Chris now:
I was under the impression that Tom Riddle hid his ancestry so that 
no one save Dumbledore knew his true background. Now if Tom Riddle 
can do it so can Lucius Malfoy. I agree that the omission of the 
word "wizarding" from POA (some one else pointed this out - sorry 
cant remember your name) is pretty important. Therefore Draco MAlfoy 
could well be the HBP and support my theory that Harry will have to 
go through Malfoy Jr, to get to Riddle.

Two additional points:
When I started this thread (TIOBDM) I said Harry may have to confront 
Malfor Jr before Riddle. SOmeone replied that this would not happen 
as Draco Malfoy was not up to Harry's standard - two things a) we do 
not actually know the extent of Malfoy's prowess and b) I never said 
that he would be a threat or even a rival to young Mr Potter.

Secondly; Malfoy is a French name, not English.
