Green arrows indicate the positions of framed maps in the world. And the footsteps you kept hearing may have been lag related, as you said you were playing on a server.
When you take a map off the wall it will often keep the green marker where it was placed on the wall, I consider this a bug, but hadn't ever looked at the bug tracker to see if it's reported. If you relog and look at the map the green marker will be gone.
As for footstep sounds, if you hear no mob sounds, its either a creeper nearby or as someone said above audio lag and you're hearing your own foot steps even if you've stopped.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
