Sounds like a worn serpantine belt. Put some Ivory dish detergent on both sides of the belt.
If that stops it, the belt needs replaced. You will also have a minor cleanup, but hey, it's soap, right!?!

Plan on replacing...
the serpentine belt, it's not very hard (WAY easier than the timing belt, and you don't have to unbolt the engine to do it.
If you don't have time right now, try some belt dressing for temporary relief. At any auto parts store. You could also do it just to confirm it's the belt - if the sound goes away, plan on replacing the belt.<ul><li><a href="http://www.valvoline.com/pages/products/product_detail.asp?product=32">belt dressing.</a></li></ul>
