Default Loud noise

Today when I came in to work I noticed a loud noise. Sounded like my pads where gripping the rotors. I havent heard anything untill right now. I drove it this morning and it was fine. ANy ideas what it could be??

P.S. IT stops when the car comes to a stop and gets louder the faster I go.

sounds like it's time to do a brake job. pick up some new rotors and pads change them and you'll be O.K.!

So did you actually check your car before you posted here or are you just assuming that by saying

NO I didnt check my car. It was when I pulled into work so i couldnt jack it up and take my wheel off. I will have to do that tommorow morning. I just wanted to get a gerneral idea what to look for. I thought it might have been and axle problem.

So after doing a seach on honda-tech I read that it might be the dust guard. I ran outside pushed it back a little and it seems that the noise is gone. I hope that fixed it and thank you everyone.
