My wiki works fine..but at times it works VERY slow and sometimes doesn't even load the stylesheet. It seems to be happening a lot more recently. Is this because I haven't done the rewrite mod? (I don't even know how to do that..i don't want to screw anything up).
Please help me, thanks.

Can you detail "at times" a bit?
Once a day it re-caches the system messages, which can be a bit sluggish and may leave a couple of things waiting on each other leading to timeouts. I'm not sure it should be strictly necessary for it to do that; if you'd like to try extending the time it keeps those try setting this in LocalSettings.php:
$wgMsgCacheExpiry = 0;
See if that helps.
