It'll be something like "view -> hide non printing characters" or the like. (maybe "hide whitespace characters")

I assume this is Microsoft Word?

Edit, if it is word, try this key combination :)
Ctrl + Shift + *

Edit:Edit! http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm

not the exact phrase but thats pretty much it... why dont i have word on this comp!?

Tools ---> Options --> View (tabbed bit)

Untick all of the "Formatting Marks" in the middle of the page.

The character highlighted second in your pic is usually found as a shortcut button on your formatting bar(near to page width etc).

The characters are pretty useful once you start putting embedded pics or diagrams in word.

EDIT: ^^what these guys say ....damn tabs making me late to the party again

Thanks guys
