burning rubber smell?

My Hotpoint Aquarius 1100 have been making a loud noise only when its on spin cycle for few months and now have a burnt rubber smell. I have it for 12 years now. Any help is appreciated.

it sounds very much like the drum bearings have collapsed,try turning the drum by hand,if its rough to turn,time for a new machine,the burning smell could be the belt has snapped
