Brake Problem

Figure I'ld throw this out and see if anyone has any input...

On my 98, I've been having a brake problem. What's happening is
sometimes when I'm stopped at a light or a sign for a minute or more,
the truck will sometimes lurch forward... not by much though. Pedal is
  firmly pressed, but it moves forward a few inches. Engine RPM doesn't
go up any when it does it either. It almost feels like the pads are
loosing grip with the rotor.

I put new front pads on, turned the rotors, truck stops better but it
still happens. Checked the brake fluid, that was OK. Checked the ABS
fuse, tip top.

Right now it doesn't do it all the time, but in the past 2-3 months it's
been happening more. I can stop, but it's just something that I would
like to take care of now that im driving it more for shows. I'm just
trying to fix it before it bites me..

Any Ideas????
