Harry was under the protection spell his mother offered when she sacrificed herself for him. This lead to an "old magic" being bound between Harry and Voldemort which meant that it was impossible for Voldemort to touch him in anyway (physical, or magical). This lead to both Voldemort's first and second defeat in the first book.

Professor Quirrell (while Voldermort being bound to his soul) tried to choke Harry but once Harry touched him with his bare hands, the part Harry touched began to burn severely. Then as Quirrell tried for a second time to kill him to obtain the Philosopher's (Sorcerer's) Stone, Harry touched his face and his entire body began to burn.

This duel between Harry and Voldemort (Quirrell) almost killed Harry, but Dumbledore came just in time to save him. Voldemort's soul then left the remains of Quirrell and departed for wherever he went until resurfacing three years later during the fourth book.
