Seized? Do you mean to the hub? BFH and an impact driver to get the phillips head off. VOILA!

Default Step one: Take a large hammer in hit it on the hat, directly between two lug bolt holes.
Do not hammer the pad surface.<ul><li><a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ceased">Step two.</a></li></ul>

if all else fails. drill some holes in the rotor and use a gear puller and a bfh.
