strange sound from the AC on startup

Anybody else get this sound from the AC when starting the car? It sounds like a long drawn out fart. It only seems to make the noise on the AC startup. Sure, initially it was pretty funny when I had a passenger there, and it made that sound. But, after a while, it's starting to get a little old.

I heard that sound too and only when AC startup. First I thought it was my bad CD or something. I try to ignore it, but now you mention it, I hope it's not a problem

Are you sure it's not the anti-locking brakes as discussed in this thread?
