check you heat sheild, make sure its tight. my 96 accord use to make some really strange noises when accelerating and the heat sheild was the problem.

try using higher octane gas

If that "fixes" it you probably have carbon deposits inside your combustion chamber.

try asking the same question in the accord forum. unless your car has a h22 and you didn't mention it.
