It is noticible at idle, and goes up in pitch the faster the car is moving (RPM's actually). I open the hood and listen, but can't identify where in the bay it's coming from.

What should I check?

If it's just the belt that's causing the squeaking, either you could replace it or save a few bucks and just put a little tooth paste on it. Laugh if you want, but tooth paste actually gets rid of the noise. That is, if it is the belt causing it.
