That can't be good.
Try spraying some silacone spray on them.
If the squealing goes away just replace the belts.

As for them smoking make sure there is nothing caught in between the belts and pulleys. Did you do anything to the belts recently.

 

no nothing has been done to the belts

 

anybody

 

?

 

replace the belts. if they are smoking, they are done.

 

any other ideas

 

Change your belts. And read(if you have one) your service manual.

90,000
That should explain it right there.
