  Albus Dumbledore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Later, Dumbledore destroys a second Horcrux, a ring which was an heirloom of Voldemort's family.
Dumbledore's death is foreshadowed at the start of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, where he first appears with a burnt and flened hand, a result of his recovery and destruction of a ring that was an heirloom of Voldemort's grandfather Marvolo Gaunt and was serving as one of Voldemort's Horcruxes.
On that occasion, Dumbledore is saved from death thanks to his own "prodigious skill" and the intervention of the school's Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, Severus Snape, though the injury shows no sign of improvement throughout the year that passes in the sixth book.

 Sword of Gryffindor » Is Harry a Horcrux?
As for Harry being a horcrux, it is indeed an attractive idea, and Snape’s warning to the Death Eaters not to kill harry because he “belongs to the Dark Lord” is indeed intriguing.
Harry is still a horcrux and her sacrifice was in vain (apart of course, from her love, which now flows through Harry’s veins and LV’s, which I suppose is going to be of great importance in Book 7).
Harry is not a horcrux there is proof enough in the magical protection of lily potter when she died protecting her son.

 Galadriel Waters' New Clues to Book 6 -- View topic - OBSERVATION: Flowery Speech
Okay, so I just want to put out there the possibility that his scar could somehow help save him, not prove him to be a horcrux (though I can't quite rule the "last horcrux" idea out, as much as I'd like to)....
There is evidence for both sides on all manner of manifestations of the horcrux discussion so please, bear with us.
I was listening to the chapter The Half Blood Prince where I heard something interesting relating to what I had mentioned earlier, the connection with the Blue Lotus (or agapanthus/lily) and altered states of consciousness.

And second, can a thing be a Horcrux and not show signs of Voldemort's personality (the hat is clearly willing to warn and work against him, although it did briefly try to convince Harry to join Slytherin).
It's certainly one of the lesser candidates for a Horcrux - a plausible candidate because it is significant for Riddle/Voldemort and because Rowling's mention of it seems gratuitous.
But a lesser candidate because (1) I think it more likely that only one Horcrux is at Hogwarts and it's something like the Hat or the sword, and (2) because of its connection to the Chamber of Secrets, it's sort of redundant to have along with the diary.

There have been several theories about the seventh and final Horcrux, but none have captured our attention more than the theory that Harry's messy hair is the last Horcrux.
One of the cardinal rules of her kind is “An Elemental Will Not Love.” In truth she mentally willed Harry to call it off with its Spiderman like ending in HBP.
The official role of Ginny Weasley in Harry's quest for a Horcrux is still unknown, but with Ginny out of the picture it leaves room for Harry to explore new love interests.

[…] I ran across a new article in Wired about Ray Kurzweil’s ideas about immortality — using technology to transform ourselves into everlasting containers of our essential being — is a sort of magic, and behaves much like the horcrux from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
