I'll just break it down like this:

I start my car and my belt squeals. I let my car run about a couple minutes and then drive about 1 mile to the highway (it squeals the whole time). I get on the highway and eventually within about 2 more minutes, it will stop squealing. About 20 minutes later I slow down for EZ pass and it starts to squeal again. Then I take off after passing through EZ pass and it stops. I make it another 10 miles and finally slow down to a couple lights. It starts to squeal again and will squeal whenever it decides to after I get off the highway.

Sometimes at a light it will stop. Then when the light turns green, I take off and it squeals until I get into 3rd gear. Then it stops and will come and go.

If I park my car for less than 2 hours, it squeals again at start up immediately.

It doesn't matter if I am turning or not...it will sometimes squeal and sometimes not.

My belts seem dry and I am not losing any fluid. WHAT THE HELL?????

Since its cheap, I would replace the power steering belt while as well. That way you know 100% that you've replaced both belts, know neither will snap while you're driving down the road, and can ensure that the squealing will be gone regardless of which belt it is.
