PC problem doing weird noise...?

last night i heard a weird noise coming from the side of the pc where the fan is, than keeps the computer cool. then i saw some smoke coming out and decided to turn it off immediatelly. the computer was really hot on from underneath. what's wrong with it? what should i do? don't make fun of this, but isn't there a danger that it could explode or somethin?

now that i've turn it on again, it all seems to be working fine.

    Your computer will not explode. However, it sounds like a fan inside has gone bad. You need to get it checked out because without cooling the processor will overheat.
