My Scripts keeps giving me unexpecter char errors!

Hello there

My unity keeps saying: BCEE0044 unexpected char 0xFEFF.

Here is my script

 #pragma strict
 
  var TheDamage : int = 50;
  var Distance : float;
  var MaxDistance : float = 1.5;
  var TheCleaver : Transform;
 
  function Update ()
  {
       if (Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1"))
       {
       GetComponent.<Animation>().Play("Attack");
       var hit : RaycastHit;
       if (Physics.Raycast (transform.position, transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward), hit))
           {
            Distance = hit.distance;
            if (Distance < MaxDistance)
                {
                hit.transform.SendMessage("ApplyDamage", TheDamage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReceiver);
 
                 }
          }
       }
  }

It needs to trigger an animation (for if you didn't see...)
