Probably not the water pump. Probably a fan belt problem. They make a spray that you can get at the auto part store for squealing belts. Just spray it on your fan belt. It should stop the squealing.

Usually when a water pump goes bad it makes a whirring sound and leaks from the bottom of it , out of a little weep hole is what they call it . Get your belts or belt replaced .

Sounds like loose belts. If it was a seized water pump it would do it all the time.

No, sounds like the alternator or a loose alternator belt

Sounds like your belt isn't tight enough. Take it to a mechanic and have him check it. It may need to be replaced..
