The line is pasted in their existing ads. Banks and other high security environment companies who are already posting ads will generate tremendous goodwill and will also open peoples' eyes to linux as a secure OS.

Agreed. Already students in colleges are realizing it. I mean practically all computers running XP at our college are infested with viruses and the sys admins have tough time keeping up with the reinstalls. Many have asked me for Linux CDs just because they are tired of the worms and viruses and it really hinders with their productivity.
This isn't the case with my college, but almost all colleges atleast in MU.
P.S.: We have pathetic, incompetent sys admins so its not a big surprise that the PCs get infected.
