Forum: RSpec rspec output on windows

I have rails 3.1.3 and rspec 2.8.0 on windows 7 (32bit) installed.
When running rspec I receive the following output:

←[32m.←[0m←[32m.←[0m

Finished in 0.33 seconds
←[32m2 examples, 0 failures←[0m

I have no glue how to get rid of the "special characters". Since I am
new to rails I appreciate any help or suggestions.

Remove --color / --colour option from project .rspec file (or
rspec.opts file, don't remember the name)
