So - you recommend that people disable javascript by default.
But then, the first time any of those people visit any of YOUR sites - they
get a big (annoying) div stating that they need it enabled?
Can I suggest not doing this, unless your site contains content that NEEDS
javascript to function?
IMHO, fancy menus do not qualify as needing javascript. I'm happy if
presented with a text-only sitemap as an alternative to a javascript-driven
menu system, and a note stating that it looks better with javascript
enabled.
NoScript, and a hosts file redirecting common ad/malware sites to 127.0.0.1
have served me well.

Does NoScript just block parts of JavaScript or must it block all
JavaScript
on a site? I lean towards forcing people to have JavaScript not blocked on
most of my sites. I like have a big div that says "Your browser is broken,
please enable JavaScript" and then use JavaScript to hide that div.
I think people should have JavaScript disabled by default and enable it
for
each site they want to use it with. I think I tried NoScript once but had
problems with it. I leave JavaScript on by default but I don't recommend
others to do that, I just don't use the Internet as a client much. I think
there are only about 10 sites I visit and I hate browsing.
