I would suggest, if you are going to be wrenching on your car, and don't know what you are doing, go and buy a manual on it, or go to a parts store and read their book.
Also, check all the belts for cracks, if any of them are showing signs of cracks, they need to be replaced.

Re: The awful squelling. help... (pane93civhb)
feel the alt belt and you should be able to turn it so you can slightly see the underside of the belt.
Once you can see the underside look for cracks rips or pretty much any imperfections.
If it can be turned a good amount there is a bolt on the alt that will slide up and down.
You will have to lossen this then some how pry the alt back towards the firewall and tighten the nut.
Sometimes its easier to do with two people
