Juli now:
Remember that Lucius was the one that planted Tom's diary in Ginny's 
cauldron at Flourish and Botts. He knew that Tom Riddle had opened the 
Chamber 50 years ago, and I'm sure he told Lucius that the diary will 
reopen the Chamber. As Dumbledore says he surely didn't know it was an 
Horcrux, but I bet he knew it contained instructions on how to open the 
Chamber. The question is, how could he be sure that Ginny would follow 
the instructions? he must have known that it would cause Ginny to act 
against herself.
