CTRL+* (or clicking the matching pilcrow key ¶ ) on the standard toolbar
will toggle the display on/off. It is merely a mechanism to enable you to
view some formatting and can be very useful. If only this symbol is
displayed - uncheck tools > options > view > paragraph marks.

Have you tried clicking on the Paragraph symbol (show/hide paragraph) on
the standard tool bar?
If so, you can also try to click on options on the tools menu, select
the view tab, and select or check the boxes.
