Facebook Messenger was the top CPU process - 60% or something - with others nowhere close to that number. These were other programs with far more computing power - Google Chrome, MS word, iBooks, etc. I only had messenger open in the background. I uninstalled the app. Immediately, fans turned off and everything started working again. Instantly reach the people in your life—for free. Messenger is just like texting, but you don't have to pay for every message (it works with your data plan).

Facebook doesn't make it easy to know whether someone has blocked you.
They do this for privacy and security reasons, which means that, unfortunately, you won't get confirmation that someone has blocked your account. However, it is possible to deduce whether you've been blocked based on how the Messenger app behaves when you try to send a message.
Here's how you can tell if someone's blocked you on the Facebook messaging app.

How to know if someone blocked you on Messenger
© Dave Johnson/Business Insider You can tell if a message has been received or read based on the status icon. Dave Johnson/Business InsiderWhen you use the Messenger app on your phone or in a browser on your desktop, you are probably familiar with the status icons next to the messages you send. There are four:

1. An unfilled, empty circle means the message has not been sent. This is typically because you don't have any internet access when you try to send a message.
2. An unfilled icon with a check mark means the message has been sent but not delivered to the recipient.

3. An icon that's filled in means the message has been delivered.
4. An icon that's filled with your recipient's profile picture means it has been read.
As long as the recipient is logged into Facebook, your message should be delivered within a few moments, which means you'll see the icon's filled-in version. Of course, it might not be read for a while (your recipient needs to open Messenger and view the message thread).

If you send a message to someone and the message is not delivered, it generally means one of two things:
- The user has not logged into Facebook
- The user has blocked you on Messenger
It's not always possible to tell the difference, but if you see that the recipient has posted to his or her Facebook page or comments on other people's posts, that implies he or she is logged into Facebook. If your message remains undelivered, you are probably blocked.
