Random Characters in Display - *nix

I am using ELA on a Windows 2003 server to collect syslog's from our Sun and Linux boxes. Everything works. However my issue is just a display bug. For every line that is displayed, there is a random character at the end of that line. Here are some samples:

PAM-tacplus Auth user not authenticated by TACACS+ . 15:31:15 May 19 2006
PAM-tacplus Auth user not authenticated by TACACS+ c 15:26:15 May 19 2006
PAM-tacplus Auth user not authenticated by TACACS+ . 15:21:14 May 19 2006
PAM-tacplus Auth user not authenticated by TACACS+ . 15:16:15 May 19 2006

In the lines above the only thing that should show is :

user not authenticated by TACACS+

But as you see in the lines above some random character gets inserted after it. This can be any character. Is this a known bug or is there a fix for it?

Thanks.
