Look in your effects folder you should find two files as follows
fx_contrail_l.fx
fx_contrail_s.fx
These are the contrail files they should have a modified date of 2003 if you find any other files with the simalar names and different dates remove them. I had made a post on this back in april on this same thing.
It sounds like you have duplicate files
you only need the two listed above 8)

I must have flown for weeks with the saging contrails thinking this was the way it was supposed to be. Than while sufring on some other avaiation site I stumbled into a article about them. Thats why now I check out all downloads first before I move them into FS. One can not be to carefull. 8)
