You could just go with it. It's a source of entertainment for friends and colleages, and the reason for my alias Squeaky!

Pledge or old fashioned furniture polish. Failing that dig out the little pot of silicon goop that came with your lid and apply that.
I just leave mine sqeaking to annoy my fellow bimblers

Depends on the boots... My Vertebra IIs quietened up with a vast amount of bearing grease.
