I was looking through some Account Logon success and failure audits and I noticed that in the properties of one of the audits it referred to my server as FTP and it puts a little square after it...like something out of wingdings. Other times it just calls it FTP (without the square symbol next to it). Any idea what that's all about? It may mean nothing, but I'm trying to get to the bottom of something and would like to rule that out.

Usually, the little square indicates an "unprintable" character, meaning what ever character it is, it can't be displayed on the screen. You'll see the square when viewing some files in NotePad. If you view the same file in WordPad, you'll see that it is the carriage return/new line that can't be displayed.

I'm just viewing it in the event viewer. It probably is just a formatting issue.
