My first suspect is malicious ad sites, especially the ones embedded by JavaScript. (even more especially the ones that could have been hijacked)
This is actually a problem I had for quite a while when I first started using Google Chrome as my main browser until whatever it was had been shut down. (or I blocked all the websites in my hosts file, hosts.txt on Windows, /etc/hosts on Linux, etc)
If you ever have that problem again, try to download the page with another tool (I don't know if there's a wget for Windows) and use a plain text editor to see what scripts are being included, blocking all that aren't from Google.
