Thanks. Everything I've read so far about ISTA makes it sound very daunting to somebody like me with more rudimentary computer skills. Like you need to set up a virtual machine running a different operating system, that's its complex to use even if you figure out how to use it, and searching in it is difficult and slow. But I'm somewhat guessing because I've not seen a "how to" that's written in plain English. Like most things computer related, people who post about ISTA write using the lingo and acronyms that assume the reader already understands what they are saying. To me it's half English half Swahili.
