Squeak sounds from front..

hey guys...
i have two questions
first,
i changed all of my break pads about a week ago or so...
since i changed, i hear big squeak sounds like break pads worn..

second,,
how often i should change my rotor?
actually, i didn't change my rotor for 70,000 miles... but it looks fine though...

i don't wanna hear that cheap sounds anymore...
plz help me...

did you bed in the pads to the rotor? did you surface the rotors when you put on new pads?

a lot of times there are instructions on how to do that
