Playhead at the end of a frame instead of the beginning

Question

Friends, please help me, it's making me go crazy. My playhead started showing at the END of each frame instead of at the beginning (please see the attached printscreen). Please tell me what I've changed accidentally to make it work like this, I hate it and I want to change it back. Thanks!

Motion Blur is probably turned on, the shutter phase in the advanced section of Comp Settings (Ctrl/Cmnd + K) is probably set to a negative number, and the shutter angle is probably greater than 180º. The default is 180º and -90º for angle and shutter. This gives you a close match to the motion blur you get from a standard Motion Picture film camera.

Verify by setting a layer in-point using Alt/Option + [ and then moving to the in-point by pressing 'i' or by turning off motion blur.
