Rust is whats holding the rotor on. Apply wd-40 to the lug stud holes in the disk and around the hub /rotor surface, then tap the rotor between the lug studs with a hammer. Be careful NOT to strike the lug studs or they will become damaged. Sometimes it takes a few bangs. When the rotor comes off, I suggest you use fine sand paper and/or steel wool to clean the mating surfaces so the rotor goes back on easily. Another thing to consider is to mark the rotor prior to sliding it off the hub. I have had a few instances where re-indexing the rotor to the hub induces a brake vibration. Hope that hepls!
