I see lots about them being turned on and off, but what are they?

simply put
Clean URLs requires something like the apache mod_rewrite to work. This apache module accepts 'clean urls' and converts them to drupal friendly urls before sending the url to drupal.
Therefore a url like http://yourddomain.com/forum get sent to drupal as http://yourdomain.com/?q=forum.
This is a nice feature when you create static pages called 'contacts' or the such. Rather han referencing them as http://yourdomain/?q=node/21 or even http://yourdomain/?q=contacts you would just use http://yourdomain/contacts.
It makes your site 'clean'er.

Sounds like I'd like them,
Sounds like I'd like them, but using them is still out of my league. (Just about everything is out of my league at the moment; it's a matter of deciding what to learn first.)
Thanks!
