I'm not sure what keys I hit, but my rectangle tool has a crosshair and a left arrow attached to a vertical bar. When I draw rectangles, they are drawn at a skew and not aligned to a default XY axis.

Anyone know how I got it turned on? What it's purpose is, and more importantly, how to turn it off without restarting?

Thanks!

That's the icon that appears when you have a perspective grid turned on, but it seems odd that you wouldn't know that the grid was there. In any event, try going to View > Perspective Grid > Hide Grid (if it's turned on) or hit Command-Shift-i.
