  • SAFErating from user BroWnChiLD for file %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Facebook\Messenger\2.1.4651.0\FacebookMessenger.exe (Variant: 14155959)

    This is official Facebook App, i dunno why Jahed marked this as a Threat. It doesn't eat that much resources on my end, so I think there's something wrong with his installation or system. This is safe to use.

  • THREATrating from user Jahed for file %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Facebook\Messenger\2.1.4651.0\FacebookMessenger.exe (Variant: 14155959)

    This program takes so much CPU usage when I'm not connected to the internet. I don't expect such a thing from the Facebook messenger. It's almost like a virus!
