Could be the spring rubbing weirdly where its seated. Does it sound like a grinding noise or creaking, or more like the noise you get when you rub your finger across like a piece of glass when its wet?

Is it coming from the front or the rear and have you done rotors and brakes recently?

If its a high pitched squeal its most likely your brakes.

Its kinda weird you posted this cause mine started making a high pitched squeaking noise this morning on the way to work. I got out of the car and pushed down on the front of the car and it sounded like the strut. Not sure yet, but I will look into it when I get home.
