Rachel here:
We do know that there is some sort of a connection between LV and 
Harry.  The diary example you cited here sounds very plausible when 
you consider this theory; however, if the locket found in Sirius' 
home is another horcrux of LV, wouldn't Harry be more drawn to it 
than he was?

It seems to me that given this theory, Harry would perhaps not know 
where to find the horcruxes, but he would probably know one when he 
saw one (and, it would seem, possibly know how to destroy it).
