Default Funny Engine Noise

Well, actually, it's not funny at all. Engine running, with AC off, everything is fine. Turn on the AC, and something isn't right. Excuse my lack of terminology, but the fan in the engine compartment that kicks on when you turn on the AC, that's where the sound is coming from. It's not running smooth. Sounds almost like something is in there rubbing against it as it turns.

Anyone have anything like this happen before?

Problem solved!!!!!! (With no help from the forum )

I got my windows tinted this morning, and apparently, they didn't clean their shop floor very well, and my car sucked up one peice of clear plastic, and another long strip of tint. Luckily, that's an easy fix.
