Faint square boxes appeared while working on CS2

[stefaniec96697584]

Hi

I have the much older version of illustrator, CS2 I believe. And ive recently done a piece of artwork. Only while doing the finishing touches, for some reason these faint square boxes appeared on the back drop. Ive look on all the layers to find they are not part of what ive done. They even appear on the printed version.

Ive noticed when I saving it, it comes up with something about gradiance Ive used too.

Im stuck.

All I have been using is pen tool and the gradient for my artwork. As I'm still learning to use illustrator. This seems to of happened when I was saving it as a illustrator template.

Kept coming up with this info box saying it cannot output this document because it contained more than 27 spot colours and uses transparency. And that I should delete some spot colours or convert them to process colours.

So am thinking is that to do with the swatch colours?

still it doesn't make sense about these boxes though.
