This newer one is identical to the old one except it's a bit darker and highlights the blue flashing light on the left...
IIRC, the video has always been called wc_spheres, but it does seem to have been speeded up slightly since the site first opened. I can't personally see the flashy lights (that may be 'coz I'm colour-blind!!), but they hid a clue in flashing morse before, so its a possibility!

So, I think the background sequence with the spheres on the Investors page has a morse signal in it too, as some have already speculated.
Not sure if everyone can see it depending on your screen and/or browser, but over on the left side of the screen just above the middle of the window there's a faint blue flashing light (that it looks like extends out like a horizon across the background as well actually) and it seems as though the morse/flashing sequence starts over when the 'glitch' happens, restarting the spheres.
I can't read morse code, but whoever worked that out last time... can you take a look?
Also, the star pattern is in the background in the middle of the same page moving left to right as dark smaller spheres way in the back, as someone else pointed out. I just wanted to mention that I noticed that as well to second the notion.
So this doesn't get lost, I'll quote myself and add that it's definitely a morse code on the Investor page off to the left, light blue flashes, fourth square down from the top on the grid (thank you to whoever mentioned the grid earlier). Maybe they're waiting for us to decipher the flashes/morse...?
Yes, just downloaded the spheres video and there is a blue flashing light to the left. I'll play around with the contrast to make it stand out...and it is (the video) definitely different from the one they had before...

I have a feeling the recent disappearances/fix-ups/work in progress stuff on the site is probably them tying to fix stuff up for the next age of the viral...

Scott initially sought to produce the prequel in two parts and in 3D. He also anticipated having former commercial director Carl Erik Rinsch direct it, but 20th Century Fox, which owns the Alien franchise rights, wanted Scott to be the director.[48] By July 2009, Scott was attached to direct the film. Screenwriter Jon Spaihts had pitched to Fox his approach to the prequel. The studio and Scott liked the pitch and hired Spaihts to write the screenplay.[49] Lindelof was later hired to revise Spaihts's screenplay.[50] In October 2010, Lindelof submitted the revised screenplay to 20th Century Fox. The studio was pleased because it had contested Scott's proposed budget of $150–160 million and found Lindelof's screenplay to be more budget-conscious; Scott had initially requested a $250 million budget along with an R rating, but 20th Century Fox was reluctant to invest so much money in a film that was not PG-13.[51]
Fox is here to blame for this *shakes fist*

Its really possible we got things out of order from what they had conceived.. Like we found clue #5 before we found clue #3 and it fucked up everything they had planned and they are busy trying to salvage it..??!@&*%*
Yea, I know.. yada yada///
Gotta say tho, for a film with this kind of appeal and knowing the value of these kinds of virals for blockbuster films, It is very disappointing. They waited until late to bring this on and this got us all riled up for a fast paced intelligently conceived and executed adventure..and after days of mensa menageries, we got two promo pics from a mission that hasnt happened yet..
At least JJ gave us t shirts and Rocket Pops!
I always try and put myself in the mind of those tasked with creating these sagas.. Its encouraging to know that if I lose my job, there is one waiting for me....<S>

Ill state it again, I think we're getting lost in minutiae and details. I think the game makers here are using broader strokes here. When we found the site for project Prometheus, it was a simple link in the timeline. When we figured out the passwords for 245409 and Eridu we used the clues hidden in front of our faces. While I think the idea of a game based on star charts, mythology, and the atomic mass of elements is exactly the one I want to play, the game makers thus far have not been that cryptic and detailed. While it is entirely possible that they will get harder with their puzzles in the near future, I doubt it will be in the direction of matching up star charts with floating bubbles scrolling across the background, or Morse code from blinking gifs. The theme we seem to be working with here is obvious things hidden in plain sight. This is a game of Gotchas. I mean the password for the Eridu site was the name of the same city for crying out loud!
We need to do a tactical retreat, take a step back and look at the site, and see what we are missing.
Edit: Honestly the first thing we should probably do us confirm OOG elements such as: the Prometheus UK twitter account. With the right question to the twitter account we know to be IG, we can confirm this without the game makers having to go meta. Eridu was given to us by a clue from the game makers after we asked a question, there's no reason that they shouldn't answer another question.
