I believe it is to keep water/condensation out.

Electrical grease, prevents corrosion and arching, I use it all the time on electrical connections, you can buy it in small tubes at any auto parts store, I highly recommend it.

Halogen headlight fluid.

Yeah it's the same stuff on my car, in the headlight bulb connector, and on the battery.
Personally i don't like it, it gets greasy, and nasty.
