    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 + *

    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
