Default Clutch - Squeal Noise

I have a 6 banger (but my question applies to all i think) that "squeels" when the clutch is not pushed in or disengaged. so when i am shifting - it sounds fine.. but sitting at a red light i hear this.. noise.. and its pretty loud.

Now if i just push the clutch in a small amount - it goes away..

I am not sure what this is.. do i need to replace my clutch??
I know a vauge question - but my milege is pretty high - and i am guessing i will need to get this done.

What should i pay to get this done. I hate not being a gear head - cause this type of stuff can drive you up a wall.

Thanks for all the help--
Walt

You need a new throw out bearing.But since your in there replacing the TOB you should replace the clutch. Most clutch kits come wit ha new Throw out bearing.

Hey everyone - just wanted to post a follow up.
I had to eventually get the clutch replaced - i paid 400$ i think..
