mine squeek too and the only way i found is to wash your bike. when iwash the wheels and spray them off with the hose they get quite for awhile. it's temporary fix but it helps. i think it's brake dust up in there. just becarefull after washing them the brakes suck untill the pads get dry.

are the rotors warped or have a slight glaze of corrosion on them ? you can try pulling off the calipers and cleaning the crap out of them and taking a piece of sand paper and going over the pads.
