ugly noise from front of engine

after some enthusiastic driving i parkd and heard a bad noise that seemed to be coming from one of the accessories, i think it was the a/c compressor, as the car idled. it sounded sort of like a bad bearing or when the waterpump goes, but i crawled under a bit and it seemed to be from the drivers side, i think thats the a/c and alternator, i noticed that the front section of the a/c compressor was turning slowly, not as fast as the belt was going and when i turned the a/c on nothing changed, so i suspect the comp. clutch, does this sound reasonable and what can i do about it? thanks
