I have to agree with Sue. There are TONS of hints in HBP about Snape staying loyal to Dumbledore and the Order. Plus, the unbreakable vow is only between Snape and Draco. Just because Snape's promised to protect Draco, doesn't mean he isn't still loyal to Dumbledore. As much as Draco talks the talk about being a Death Eater, he just doesn't have the heart. And Snape and Dumbledore know it.
Plus, at the end Dumbledore is simply begging Snape to kill him and put him out of his misery. "Snape, please..." is just Dumbledore asking for Snape to kill him because he's in agony.
Not to mention that if Dumbledore says Snape is on the good side, then I still believe him! :)
But I'm NOT saynig Snape is a good guy. But, probably like Draco, he's no Death Eater (at least not anymore). I think the end of the 7th book will have Snape assisting with the killing of one (or more) of the horcruxes, and Harry finishing off Voldermort.
Overall, I liked HBP, but it took a while to get interesting. I still think Order of the Phoenix is my favorite.
