frnsic now:

We know that Voldemort's witch mother died giving birth to him 
(therefore, died so that he could live). This could be Voldemort's 
blood protection, but I doubt it, because Dumbledore (and Voldemort 
himself) told Harry that he despised of and had forgotten about this 
ancient form of magic. Is it likely he would despise of or forget 
about something that could help or protect him? 

Do we know the "rules" governing blood protections? What I recall is 
simply that Harry's mother died to save her son, trying to protect 
him; therefore, that protection lingers in his veins (I've always 
envisioned this as some sort of Voldemort antibody). 

Voldemort's mother was not trying to protect him, but DID die so 
that he could live. Does this count? If so, who would the protection 
be AGAINST???
