The disc brake on my bike squealed when new, too.  It went away by
itself.  One thing I've heard is that some pads have some slop in
their caliper so they vibrate when you drive, and when they vibrate
into contact with the disc, they squeal.  Heavy grease on the
BACKSIDE of the pads to damp out this vibration will fix this.
