they appear around ik handles. dont know why - get rid of them if you hide the ik handle - and before hiding parent it to a dummy object, and the boxes are gone.

aehm, anything, a locator, or if you like a little better shaped object, make a triangle. (triangle is a nurbs circle with 1 section and degree 1).
