Thanks everyone. I got it fixed thanks to your kind assistance.
1) I still don't have a clear understanding of it though. I had gone to the
<Color Settings> dialog on the Edit menu. It pops up and in the Working
Space RGB field it says sRGB IEC61966-2.1. Seeing that, I thought the image
*already was* in sRGB, and I was using Save for Web as usual.
2) However, when I went to <Convert to Profile> on the Edit menu, the Source
Space was Adobe RGB. Setting the destination space to sRGB (converting to)
and then using Save to Web corrected the problem.
So now I ask (and I'm sure this has been mentioned here before or I could
look it up), what is it really telling me under <Color Settings> when it
says the working space is sRGB?
I'm also amazed at how little difference it has made in other images, not
doing the Convert to Profile step.

As Ryan said, make sure the color space is sRGB. Then, if you're using
PhotoShop do a Save for Web. It should come up on the Save for Web page
looking the same as your sRGB but all exif data and color space info will
be stripped. That should avoid any confusion when you put it up on the web.

Convert to profile sRGB, that'll expand or reduce your working gamut into
the web gamut and it should be exactly the same in appearance. Don't
bother embedding a profile in the web image, it is assumed sRGB and may be
ignored.
