I have been wondering about this recently.  When Dumbledore died, it 
was emphasized that Harry knew it because Dumbledore's spell that had 
frozen Harry in place instantly stopped working, and Harry could move 
again.  This really made me start wondering what other magic of 
Dumbledore's is going to stop working.

I thought for sure that Grimauld Place wasn't going to be protected 
now, but it hadn't occured to me that the secret keeper probably isn't 
the one who cast the charm.  Who would it have been then?  Sirius comes 
to mind, but he's already dead.

Besides Grimauld Place, Dumbledore is also involved in the magic that 
protects Harry at the Dursleys' home.  It is Lily's sacrifice which 
makes the protection possible, but Dumbledore has claimed to have a 
part in doing some of the magic involved with the protection.  Is Harry 
as safe at the Dursleys' as he has been in the past?
