Hi Copey, Sounds like your fan belt, most likely just needs to tightened, but could be on it's way out and might need to be replaced - if you tighten it yourself be careful as you may end up snapping it yourself!
 
It could be a sticking brake pad - does it stop squealing when you brake?

If so, take off the brake pads clean the sliding slots and put them back. Do BOTH sides.

Another possible is a little gravel stone stuck on the metal plate behind the disc.
