Sometimes while using my macbook pro, no matter what I'm doing (for example using Microsoft Word) it will make the fan inside my mac speed up really fast. When I quit the program, the fan speed will continue to be fast still after 5 minutes or so.

Is this the hard drive?

Also, If I purchased a mac in 2007, is it still possible to buy the apple protection plan?
