I call it "slide noise". Steel strings that produce a lot of it, nylon/flatwound strings are much quieter in that aspect.

i call it fret noise, but it doesn't really have anything to do with the frets, does it.

String squeak, I believe.

Some people can't stand it, but I like it here and there.

I've tried to re-create the string noise in Stairway to Heaven but I can't do it.

How so? A chord is made up of 2 or more notes, not really hard to mess that one up.

Nope. A chord is made of at least 3 notes. The basic/normal chord is composed the fundamental, 3rd and 5th.
