Being a blockchain app, Massa Station interacts with distant servers and performs cryptographic operations. Antivirus warnings for new apps in this category are common but are mostly not indicative of any threat. If you are using an antivirus that blocks Massa Station, you can try to add Massa Station to the whitelist.

Massa Station’s code is publicly accessible and auditable on [GitHub](https://github.com/massalabs/station), which means that anybody can check what’s happening. It’s part of our commitment to transparency and security.

### Why can't I see modules in module store?
### Why can't I see modules in module store?

The module store is hosted on GitHub. If you are in a country that blocks GitHub, you will not be able to see the modules.

We are working on a solution to this problem, but in the meantime, you can install modules manually using the right panel of the module store.

For example with the Massa Wallet module:

1. Go to the [latest Massa Wallet release page](https://github.com/massalabs/station-massa-wallet/releases/latest).
2. Copy the URL of the `.zip` file corresponding to your operating system.
3. Paste the URL in the right panel of the module store and click on "Install".
