Crazy loud muffler/exhaust sounding noise from my front drivers side of
my 94 accord.  Wasn't doing it yesterday, today is unbearable.  Sounds
terrible in first and second gears, tollerable when doing 60km in 4th
and 80km in 5th.

Is it a hum, a growl, a rattle, etc.?

If it's a metallic rattle, the fact that you can hear it more easily in
lower gears suggests to me that the catalytic converter heat shield is loose
or rusted.  This happened to my '93 Accord earlier this year.  If you don't
drive or park on grass, just remove the shield and leave it off since the
part costs a few hundred bucks to replace.
