Indeed.  Most often, based on what I've heard, their advice will turn  
out to be to toss your reasonably secure modern WWW-compatible  
browser, and "upgrade" (as they laughably put it) to MSIE. 
 
The classic example I've heard of was a German online savings bank web  
site, which stated to the hapless customer that it only worked when  
javascript was enabled, and offered a link to the security advice from  
the German banking industry - which recommended having javascript  
*disabled* when using banking websites.
