Can it be a planet or Star a certain distance away from our Sun but in movement towards it so it "seems" to move slow?
The "stealth-mode" appearance can be the brightness of the solar flares replacing the light reflecting of the object so it seems invisible.
Off-course the question remains, what is it?

I'll watch again. But, I didn't see it move.
Visible from April 26th to May 3rd...
A hot pixel caused by a cosmic ray strike possibly.
NOTE: LACK OF DATA UPDATES. SOHO went into "Emergency Sun Reacquisition" mode on Friday May 4, 2012, caused by a false trigger of the Coarse Sun Pointing Attitude Anomaly Dector. We are working on the recovery of the spacecraft to normal mode. Nominal science operations should be re-established in the next couple of days.
Proton hits are a main cause of hot pixels or spikes in any space-based CCD.
Since it is absolutely stationary in the frame (despite movement of the spacecraft)
It is reasonable to assume it has something to do with the imaging device rather than an external object.
A hot pixel caused by a cosmic ray strike possibly.
actually absolutely despite reasonable assume something rather possibly probably .
OK, what if the "Object had the same trajectory as SOHO but coming in at a very slight angle?
Why can you assume that it is an imaging device error and not something inbound?
Why would a HOT pixel last for seven days?
And why are your posts are very pro-nouned?
