It's been de-bunked by Snopes but they have also listed the uses that it is suitable for.
So, take a look here:

Even those lists are dubious. I would never consider WD40 as a long term lubricant. Yes it will stop squeaks but your average can of general purpose oilwill do the same and last much longer.
