Therefore, it is equally unlikely that he was PLANNING to turn Harry 
into a horcrux.

> B) This leaves the possibility that Harry was made a horcrux by 
accident... And I can't imagine a protection that would RESULT IN 
HARRY BEING TURNED INTO A HORCRUX. 

Karen:
Reasons why I think his scar IS a horcrux:
Harry's scar is a Horcrux
PS- "Scars can come in useful"

CoS- "Voldemort put a bit of himself in me?" Harry said, thuderstruck.
"It certainly seems so." (DD)

GoF- "Because you and he are connected by the curse that failed, "
said Dumbledore. "That is no ordinary scar."

LV and Harry share the same tailfeathers from a Pheonix in their 
wands. That could be because a piece of LV soul is in Harry and the 
significance of the pheonix is that they go on living forever as LV 
is terrified of death.

Other supports for this theory taken from Harry Potter Lexicon:
LV wants a relic of each founder and harry is probably a Gryffindor
decendant.
The murder of Harry's parents was a significant murder and LV might
want a "trophy" from that murder.
Harry is a parseltoungue.
LV possesses Harry in OP.
Killing curses do not leave scars.
No one tries to kill Harry besides LV- he wants him alive.

I do believe it was accidental though and while I have no quotes from 
the books to back me up I really feel that somehow something 
rebounded due to his mother's love and Harry ended up with the scar 
as a horcrux.  I am not sure LV or even Harry's mother intended for 
this although I suppose it could be possible that Lily wanted to give 
her son the opportunity to defeat LV that she and her husband did not 
get.

The details of why the scar is a horcrux are unclear to me but I am 
certain that it is!
