There are two different sizes as pointed out below. The older hubs have the longer boot which loosely slips over the rear of the hub/spindle, but the later version stops well short of that. Apparently it was decided the extra boot length wasn't helping much since that wasn't an airtight seal anyway. Also, the bearing is sealed by the design of the hub. Is it possible that you didn't mount the replacement boot properly and the grease is gone? That'll cause a noise. There will be signs of grease being flung all over the rear wheel area if so.
