sit still & rev the car a lil when you first start it up.. if it does it while your sitting still, it's probly one of your belts (alternator belt / power steering belt / or AC belt)
If you free rev it once or twice after the cold start & it doesn't do it, and then it does it when you go to move, then my answer is going to be that it's your brakes.
try to listed to where the noise is comming from on the car.
hope that helps

I was about to say belts or power steering. I know I'll hear it in parking lots and cringe when I hear it.
