Yep, chamfering the pads usually helps. Take the pads out and using a file, just knock about 1mm off their edges. Any 90 degree edge of pad, make into two 45 degree angles. Let me know how it works for you!
Gary,

just to clarify you basically mean I don't want any 90 degree edges where the pads contact the rotor surfaces?

Egg-zactly. You'd be surprised how often that gets rid of a noise.

Check your membership anniversary date. If there is a problem, contact HondaGal to get it straightened out.

I must apologize for leading you astray. "Guests" do have PM capability. It's just that they don't have much room to keep too many PMs in their PM folders. How much is too much? I don't really know.

Ian, I would suggest you take a look at your PMs and if there are a quite a few, copy/paste the important ones you want to save to a word processing document and then delete them from all your folders. Also, make sure you go to your profile editing pages and check all your PM settings. Maybe you haven't turned them on after the new site version went into affect.

Yeah I figured even guests would have a 10 or 20 message limit
