Can't help you regarding the fan whine, but the water into the passenger footwell means your condensor drain is clogged, bent, or inoperative.

Yup. That's always the culprit. There is probably a bunch of gunk that's built up over time. You don't say what your driving, but this is something that can happen to any car w- A/C.
The fan whine "could" be the blades of the fan scalping the water that is certainly building up in the housing.
