colebiancardi:  I don't know if Snape knows about the horcruxes, but 
since he is the DADA teacher & he also knows a lot about the Dark 
Arts, I don't think it is a stretch to state he probably does know 
about them.  However, the confiding bit - I was rereading HBP and I 
noticed that when DD was telling Harry about Voldy's 7 horcruxes, the 
portraits were listening in and paying attention.  So, the portraits 
do know about the horcruxes & everything DD & Harry spoke about that 
evening about Voldemort.  So, since they(the portraits) serve the 
headmaster(or in this case, headmistress) of Hogwarts, will McGonagall 
find out about Harry's quest thru them?
