Message in source code is classic sign of an ARG, or some college student trying to start one. Rather skeptical of all this after the shit pulled by movie studios in promoting things like The Fourth Kind & 2012:


Update: Universal Pictures Sued for Posting Fake "Fourth Kind" News Stories

(NB Universal say they weren't sued, but all references to the scandal and criticism of the practice have since been removed from Wikipedia, there was a section about it on The Fourth Kind wiki this time last year - very dodgy)

2012's questionable marketing campaign:

"The studio also launched a viral marketing website operated by the fictional Institute for Human Continuity, where filmgoers could register for a lottery number to be part of a small population that would be rescued from the global destruction.[6] David Morrison of NASA received over 1000 inquiries from people who thought the website was genuine, and condemned it. "I've even had cases of teenagers writing to me saying they are contemplating suicide because they don't want to see the world end," he said. "I think when you lie on the internet and scare children to make a buck, that is ethically wrong."[21]

So I think it's worth being wary about this Oct 28 site, even if they give you something concrete.
