> > So, my question is if Snape faced Quirell a few
times and told him to stop chasing the Stone, to
decide in whom is his loyalty, then why didn't
Voldemort also know about it? He was already sharing
Quirell's body and soul, so he must have known and
heard all their conversations, right? So how come
Voldemort does not know that Snape has changed sides?
That he is actually working for the Order and
Dumbledore? < <
 
> > Carol responds:
<SNIP> 
> As I see it, the incident planted a seed of doubt
about Snape in Voldemort's mind, but as he doesn't
know that Snape is an Occlumens, he wouldn't know that
Snape was blocking certain thoughts from reaching the
conscious level. That doubt, IMO, was increased when
Snape failed to show up for the DE meeting in the
graveyard (and perhaps by messages from Barty Jr. that
led to Voldemort's belief that Snape had left him
forever). As I've said before, Snape must have
explained to him (possibly through Lucius Malfoy) that
you can't apparate from Hogwarts and it was impossible
for him to attend the meetings. <

Juli again:
I get your point Carol, but my question remains, if
Snape *knew* that Quirrell was after the stone for
Voldemort who was trying to regain his power, he
shouldn't have been so obvious about his dislike for
Quirrell!Mort. What I'm trying to explain is that
during PS/SS Snape was working for DD and being loyal
to him, then comes Quirrell searching for the stone
for LV (I'm sure Snape knew it wasn't for himself,
mainly because I think he's also a legimens) and Snape
tries to stop him, and by doing so he stops LV from
returning. So, LV must have known for sure that Snape
had left him for good. What Snape could have told him
later (during GoF-OoP) is an absolute mystery, he must
have done some serious convincing arguments in order
to get into LV's good side again. Maybe Lucius had
something to do with that, specially since Lucius
seems to be really close to LV, almost second in
command.
