A friends chain maintenance regimen is to clean the chain with WD40, then apply automatic transmission fluid to it via a tooth brush.
I like it, 'cause you can keep the o-rings clean and then lightly coat them so they don't dry out and crack.
My one modification to his method is that I use synthetic oil instead of ATF as I like the way it sticks to the chain better.
Either way, if not overdone, doesn't seem to sling much at all.
