Most of the time, I pronounce it thus: snake oil.

It's an acronym, but there are plenty of acronyms out there with different pronunciations. JPG, GIF, etc. It annoys me when someone doesn't say each letter for specific acronyms, but saying each letter individually doesn't happen as often as making up an "easier" way of saying it (ie. NATO and nay-toe, or NASA).
Basically how people choose to pronounce an acronym varies, and depends on how easy it is to say it phonetically.

there's no hard-fast rule for acronyms. most pronunciations probably have to do more with what is phonetically pleasing. ie. you never hear dba's say S-Q-L server, they say 'sequel' server, though in the case of mysql, you usually hear my S-Q-L.
i never hear anyone say 'seeoh', however
