I sit corrected, so before anyone yells at me :D I should point out that most if not all times I encounter that is when pigging webpages, so it's likely a bastardised version of dos/unix snippets of text, headers, inline css, js code, etc., all thrown together by the server and vomited up into my browser. So there's likely to be at least 1 line w/o a '^M', hence my having to manually kill 'em off.
