Default right front wheel noise?

Whenever I am driving around town and I push on the brakes hard, my front right wheel starts to make a scraping sound as the wheel spins. the sound goes away after a while, but i think it might be my power steering hitting the inside of the wheel. Has anyone had this problem and how do I fix it?

Well, I cannot make the connection between a scraping sound while braking and a power steering problem. Are you turning at the same time or is this a straight line stop? Normally a scraping sound while braking is a case of over worn pads and the rivets are contacting the rotor or worse.
