Default weird noise when i let off clutch.... = bad......

okay, so yesterday i was in 4th gear, goin to fifth and as i let off the clutch i heard a squealing noise that sounded like a belt of some sort, i figured it was the guy next to me cause i'd never heard that sound before and i tried doing the same thing to make it happen again and couldnt.... well i was in my car for a couple hours last night, and it did it almost in the triple digits.... i'm dumb and thought it mighta been the wet weather and this morning was dry and it still did it... again... its a squealing noise as i let off the clutch (but only sometimes) maybe its as i press the gas too, i dont know since they go hand in hand... but i'm afraid since i'm horrible at fixing things on my own and people charge up the a$$ to fix things on my car, if somebody could tell me how,what,why, and how to fix this problem that'd be awesome

Default TO bearing like skol said... and just so you know, mine has sounded like that for 2 years now.

Still no clutch problems. It only does it on really humid days, it's very strange... but until the clutch actually starts causing me problems im not touching it.
