It sounds like you would need to store a cookie if you only want
"first time visitors" to see this message. Furthermore, it sounds like
the front page is not the only candidate for this feature, because
visitors may well enter your site from other URLs, from Google or from
other sites which link to internal pages on yours.
If the above is correct, then it sounds like you would need custom
jQuery code which would run on every page. It would look for the
existence (and value) of that cookie and then based on that, decide
whether or not to show the message.
And of course when the users clicks that he understands, the jQuery
would set the cookie.
That's my first thoughts anyhow.
