Why am I seeing a heart after the ping command? I'm running the command below over an ssh connection in ConEmu, if that changes anything. Is this expected or have I been hacked in some fashion? Pinging on other shells, non-Ubuntu shells, (git-bash) doesn't do this.

I'm running the command ... in ConEmu, if that changes anything.




It changes everything. That's how your terminal emulator renders the character that's send for CtrlC (End-of-text, or ETX, hexdecimal 0x03). You can try this out with printf 'x03'. Switch to another if you find it annoying, but I don't know if any emulators in Windows don't have this problem.
