How can I change the format of a text file that I'm editing in vim?

I recently saved the source code of a web page and opened it in vim,
and it said at the bottom [unix], which I assume means vim decided for
some reason that this is a "Unix" file (or should be viewed as a Unix
file), however every line ends with the CR symbol, ^M, so this is
obviously a "Windows" file.

I know I can do a simple substitution of all ^M's with nothing to get
rid of them (assuming there are no other ^M's in the file that I
wouldn't want to get rid of), but I'd also like to know if I can
change that setting (the vim file format display) myself. Also, why
wasn't vim able to recognize that the file was separated by CR/NL
instead of just NL?
