In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, by J.K. Rowling, a witch or wizard may use Dark Magic to divide their soul and hide it in other objects. The object then becomes a horcrux (plural: horcruxes). This must be done after an act of supreme evil e.g. murder. This grants them a form of immortality.
So, what he's saying is that since part of Voldemort's soul is in Harry, Harry is a Horcrux?

Yes, albeit an accidental one. Harry was the Horcrux Voldemort never intended to make. It's kind of strange really. After hearing the prophecy, Voldemort going after Harry is exactly what led to his destruction. He created his own downfall.
When you think about it, pretty much everything fictitious could have been resolved a whole lot easier if the characters thought things through like regular human beings. But, I suppose, if they did that, there would be no plot, and the world would be that much bleaker. *deep in thought*
