I'm guessing that it's because something for the weekend, sir? is 
the way British barbers used to offer to sell condoms to 
customers.  I 

don't know why I know this, but I'm sure it's wasting space in my 
brain that could be used for better purposes.

All the best,

The funniest I ever saw on that subject was in the Warwick pub in 
Southend-on-sea, written on the dispensing machine in the gents was 
THIS IS THE WORST CHEWING GUM IN SOUTHEND.

Sid.

I saw one screwed onto a wall, straight through the center of it, with a For
Sale sign, advertising Never Used.

The number seem endless and priceless, like one a colleague saw some 
years back when there was a high profile campaign to have George Davis 
freed from prison, it was stuck over part of a petrol station's advert 
and read Free George Davis with every 4 gallons.
Regards
Sid.

   Changing the content inside fgfsrc didn't work.  I am out of idea. =(
 
  I think he's using fgrun. That utility will always overwrite the
  contents of the .fgfsrc file on Unix. Maybe the same thing happens on
  Windows with the system.fgfsrc file?
 
 How would he fix the problem then?

Ok, I checked how fgrun could add those lines to the .fgfsrc (or
system.fgfsrc), and how to remove them. Actually, this user probably
explored all the tabs and menus and advanced options in fgrun. If you
click on Advanced..., then select the Properties dialog, and click
on New without entering anything in the Property field, the line
--prop: is appended to .fgfsrc. The same thing happens in the
Debugging dialog, with --trace-read= and --trace-write=. The
(user) fix is to select all these empty lines (the first line in each
empty list: Properties, Trace-Read Properties, Trace-Write Properties),
and each time click on the appropriate Delete Button. Another solution
might be to simply delete the .fltk/flightgear.org/fgrun.prefs file, or
one of the directories above altogether. I just thought that the first
solution would be cleaner and would allow to retain all the other
settings.

Feel free to forward this answer to the forum. I was too lazy to try and
register tonight on AVSIM.

If you give me some time, I might even come up with a fix in fgrun.
Unless someone does it before me (I can't assure you of any deadline).
