RAB is 100% regulus alphard black.the most convincing proof is dutch version of book 6 in which RAB is mentioned as RAZ.black when translated to dutch is zwart.
also this is from one of the jk rowling's interviews
MA: R.A.B. Can we figure out who he is, from what we know so far?

JKR: Do you have a theory?

MA: We've come up with Regulus Black.

JKR: Well, I think that would be, um, a fine guess.

also she said one horcrux is pretty easy to find if you read carefully.harry sees the real locket while cleaning in number12,grimmauld place.in the book the line goes like this ?a heavy locket that none of them could open?.
regulus was the owner of the house before sirius which means kreacher served regulus too.also dumbledore says that one person cannot take the locket.the speculation is rife that regulus used kreacher for drinking the potion(the boat does allow underage or unqualified wizards like harry and kreacher)and thats the reason for its slight madness.

yes he will in book 7.jk rowling confirmed it and added that his silver hand will not be used to kill lupin(it is given in the books that only silver kills werewolves).his hand may be used by him to kill greyfir,the person who bit lupin in his childhood and was present in the climax scene in book6.

i dunno what role will dumbledore play in book7 but jkr said that he would play a complex role.i think harry will get a share of Dumbledore's property.
what are your thoughts on aberforth, dumbledore's brother?he is said to have a major role in deathly hallows.he is shown in books but isn't referred to by his name.any guesses as to whom he is?

i think he is the person at hog's head.............
 
"Aberforth is the bartender at the Hog's Head in Hogsmeade, as revealed by J.K. Rowling in an interview . She first provided hints of this in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, when Harry noted a strong odour of goats in his bar and felt that he looked familiar (he had been shown a photo of Aberforth earlier in the book, and as Albus Dumbledore's brother, he looks like him)"
 
now to the burning question............
will harry survive?u said harry is horcrux.......can he destroy it without he being dead?

now will he survive or not only jk rowling knows but i think he will.in her newer interviews she isn't asnwering anything about harry's future but in earlier ones she talked of harry's future quite confidently(like she said that he wouldn't become minister of magic and have 12 children as predicted by trelawney).even jk rowling hasn't touched her epilouge for 15 years so we can safely assume that the plan has't changed much and harry will survive.
on another related one,the reason voldy went after dumbledore after realising his horcrux in harry is to nullify the chance of destroying the horcrux without affecting harry.i mean that voldy knows that only Dumbledore has the detailed knowledge about horcruxes and how to destroy them.

no i didn't mean voldemort suspected dumbledore of knowing about his horcruxes.all these days he had 2 enemies but now he knows that the main threat(harry) is useless(harry himself is a horcrux).voldy knows dumbledore has silver insruments(mentioned in 4 books) which is some kind of soul searcher.voldy thinks there might be a huge possibility of dumbledore realising the horcrux in harry. the only person who can save harry is dumbledore and he doesn't wants to take the risk.
anyway just been through a hp fan site.the members are going berserk over a new discovery which may proove thar lily and snape knew each other before the school.they say in the scene in which harry breaks into snape's memories during the classes meant for harry to learn occulumency,he notices a small girl laughing and playing with snape.and i have checked it it's true!how did i miss that?

one more question from hp books,who is that 'awful boy'?just to remind you here is the qoute from Book 5
"I heard -- that awful boy -- telling her about them -- years ago," she(petunia) said jerkily.
JKR has said there is something coming about Petunia's knowledge of the wizarding world.
this is from one of jk rowling's interviews:
How does Aunt Petunia know about dementors and all the other magical facts she knows?

JK Rowling: Another very good question. She overheard a conversation, that is all I am going to say.
She overheard conversation,she overheard Lily
being told about them basically.

Is that true?

JK Rowling: Yes. The reason I am hesitant is because there is more to it than that. As I think you
suspect. Correctly, but I don't want to say what else there is because it relates to book 7.

who is the unknown 'awful boy'?any guesses?
