Removing Eclipse Symbols

I have these strange symbols that appeared one day, and I'm not quite sure how I got it nor how to remove it. I don't really know what these are called so I couldn't google the answer. It's the circle/square and the paragraph symbol at the end of each line of code is what I'm referring to. Any help please?

That are visual representations of whitespace characters. The ones you're seeing represent respectively the carriage return (¤), line feed () and tabulation (»). You've apparently Show whitespace characters enabled in Window > Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors. Just uncheck the box or finetune the configuration by showing/hiding specific whitespace characters and/or by reducing the transparency level.
