How do I turn off Tab and New Line markers in Eclipse?

I am using Adobe's ColdFusion Builder, an Eclipse-based IDE built on top of Aptana.

All of a sudden, I am getting a type of whitespace marker showing in my Eclipse Editor. I must have accidentally hit a key combination.

Here is a screen dump.

screen dump of markers I am seeing

I have already tried "General > Editors > Text Editors > Show whitespace characters" and it is not this. I already have show whitespace characters turned off. If I turn it on, then the Whitespace Characters display over the top of what I am already seeing.

enter image description here

Can anyone tell me how this can be turned off? Most annoying.

Many Thanks

It's under Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors

Just uncheck 'Show Whitespace Characters':

Did you try Restarting Eclipse? If that didn't work, you might try this http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.faqs/ka11640.html which explains which file to delete to force eclipse to revert to use default settings.
