Alla earlier:
It is quite reasonable to believe  that Snape does NOT know about  
the prophecy, but I happen to think that Snape is a  pretty good 
candidate for the identity of the eavesdropper. 

 
Lupinlore: 
Well, I don't think we have ANY good candidates at the moment, Alla. 
We just don't have any evidence to go on.  Given that, anything would
be pure speculation. 
 
<SNIP>
However, we DO know that Snape has made very little effort to teach
Harry as one would reasonably expect given the prophecy.  Therefore, 
I would say that, based on the evidence we now have, the only 
reasonable conclusion is he DOESN'T know the prophecy.  
<SNIP>

Alla:

Your explanation  makes a lot of sense and yes, I realise that I am 
mostly speculating at this point, but still... somebody has to be 
the evesdropper, right? 

Do you agree that it is unlikely to be a character we haven't heard 
about so far?

I don't know I just think that Snape as the one will be Bangy enough 
and will make sense. There is a big possibility of me being wrong of 
course.
