Which belt is squealing? Is it the serpentine belt or the v-belt?

Dry bar soap will be a longer term cure for noise. CAREFULLY with the engine running lightly drag the soap on the belt. The bushings that hold the upper mounting bolt on the alternator are probably bad allowing the pully to "cock" to an angle and voila! it sqeals...
