<noscript><strong>It looks like you have Javascript disabled in your
browser.  You must have this enabled before proceeding, or the site
simply won't work.  Please call us on 9999 999 999 if you need
assistance.</strong></noscript>

Alternatively, have a splash page with a plain-HTML message with the
above wording, and then use JS to take JS-enabled people away to the
functioning page.  This might get around some problems with
web-filtering software (users who have JS enabled, but the script is
being stripped out of the page by third-party software).
