Copper Grease works a treat.

You need to take the pads out and then smear a bit on the back of the pad. Not the side that goes on the disc

Should stop the squealing.

Good point, you are a woman

Make sure they don't charge you the earth though. It's an easy fix.

May be expensive, but can save you the cost of the manual in one job.
