This paper has been inspired by the endeavour of a large number of mathematicians to discover a Fibonacci-Wieferich prime. An exhaustive computer search has not been successful up to the present even though there exists a conjecture that there are infinitely many such primes. This conjecture is based on the assumption that the probability that a prime $p$ is Fibonacci-Wieferich is equal to $1/p$. According to our computational results and some theoretical consideratons, another form of probability can be assumed. This observation leads us to interesting consequences.
