I had the same thought, Julie H., that Dumbledore might have come 
back as a zombie. That would also explain why Snape's Avada Kedavra 
didn't produce instantaneous death (as a proper AK normally would), 
but instead threw DD from the tower. We know that the AK will smash 
inanimate objects. Perhaps DD was more like an inanimate object at 
that point.
