Take everything apart and clean it. Lube the slide pins and use some sort of disc brake lube/quiet product on the back of the pads. If you are going that far though you might as well install new rotors and pads.
I use Sil-Glyde on the slide pins and Permatex 24115 on the back of the pads. I've never had any brake noise when using it. I don't think the 24115 stuff is still available nowadays though. It's a sticky dark gray grease. CRC has a similar looking product. I spread a thin layer on the back of the pads and it keeps them quiet.
If you do end up replacing your rotors & pads then I would suggest Akebono ProAct pads and Centric premium rotors. Both are good quality parts that aren't too expensive. An added bonus is the Akebono pads don't require any break-in procedure.
