"https://m.facebook.com/desktop/fbdesktop2/tickerflyout.php?_rdr" what is it? a virus?

I use windows and google. Even when I do not use facebook, I see on the top of on my screen "https://m.facebook.com/desktop/fbdesktop2/tickerflyout.php?_rdr"

I do not know what that message means. Every 30 minutes a new page is created with that message on the top. Even in the nigth, that messaged is reepeated many times on the top of my screen. I suppose that is a virus.  I would like to destroy that message. how to destroy that message?

It appears to be a remnant of Facebook Desktop. Their website displays a message that Facebook shut them down. 


10 years ago, Facebook Desktop was flagged by some sites as malware  and/or PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program). Malware Bytes should remove it for you.
