Nothing wrong with code in noscript blocks ... so long as you actually use scripting, and the stuff in noscript is related to what and why. For example, if you go to gmail with javascript turned off, you'll see the contents of their noscript, telling you to turn js back on.
And most pages that you would consider upstanding and not spam, have hidden elements. This one has plenty of them. Click the button that says search, and you'll see a brand new box with an input field and a button. click to give me talkupation, and you'll see even more stuff that's there, in the page code, but not visible.
The key is that there are ways for the user to turn this stuff back on. It's not hidden to fool users or search engines; it's hidden to make a better user experience by not cluttering the page with too much info. The hidden stuff is there when you need it, but out of sight when you don't.
Most sites have navigation that works like that. Hidden elements by themselves aren't spam.
