My power supply fan started doing that shit a few weeks ago. The fan grinds and sounds awful when the computer starts up but after a while it smooths out. If it gets loud again, I just smack the bastard and the noise goes away. If that noise if coming from your CPU fan, I wouldn't fuck around, I'd just get a new fan.

Edit: First check to be sure the fan ismounted securely and the noise isn't just from vibration or a wire touching the blades.
