Default Burnt Clutch or not???

I'm sorry if this has been posted before but I find it very strange. I drove to work just fine today. Came back..and my car wouldn't move. I had to redline 1st gear just to move 2in... that said...I'm pretty ing pissed off...I have no idea what happened but I had to have the car towed. What could it be? The clutch? Pressure plate? Flywheel? To be honest, I really don't know much about this subject. So if someone could educate me, please do. Would honda replace this under warranty? Do I have to start looking for a mechanic? Upgrade or stay stock? I just don't know - but any advice is appreciated!

Could be, what did it smell like? Did you have any smoke? Does the clutch slip? If the clutch doesn't slip then you may be ok? It doesn't hurt to take it in to have it looked at if you are worried, but almost certanly honda will NOT replace it under warranty. It's a wear item, so they'll claim abuse.
