There was only one page on my entire site that was affected, and that
page was a guestbook hosted by a third party, in this case Lycos.    I
just disabled the guestbook for now.  I do have google ads on other
pages but they are all text ads and there doesn't seem to be a problem
with any of them.  Lycos, however, puts animated ads on any pages they
host and that's where the problem seems to originate.  Contacting Lycos
is a lost cause, in my opinion.  I've had lots of problems with them in
the past and maybe after a few years they might fix the problem.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
