verysherry:  

I was under the impression that LV did not hear the entire prophesy 
and therefore did not know that one must kill the other.  

IMO, I do not think that Harry is the horcrux.  According to DD, he 
went to the house to kill Harry and use Harry's death to create the 
final horcrux. Also didn't DD mention previously ( I can't recall 
where exactly) that LV unintentionally passed his powers onto Harry?  
If he was indeed creating a horcrux, then wouldn't he be knowingly 
passing his powers on?
