Delete everything you have in /etc/apt/sources.list then copy/paste this:
Code:
# Stable 
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free 
# Stable Sources
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free 

# Security Updates  http://www.debian.org/security/
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib non-free 

# Squeeze-updates 
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze-updates main contrib non-free

# Debian Stable Backports 
# For information visit - http://backports.debian.org/
# deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main contrib non-free
You may also want:
Code:
# Debian Mozilla team APT archive - http://mozilla.debian.net/
# Iceweasel, Icedove, Iceape
# Secure APT: apt-get install pkg-mozilla-archive-keyring 
# To use this archive, you need to add the following entry in /etc/apt/sources.list
# where release is the Debian release and pkg-ver the app version release,beta, aurora
# deb http://mozilla.debian.net/ $release $pkg-$ver

# Debian Multimedia Packages - http://deb-multimedia.org/
# DMM mirror list http://deb-multimedia.org/debian-m
# Note new updated repo line and keyring
# Secure apt: apt-get install deb-multimedia-keyring
# Debian Stable
# deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org squeeze main non-free
# deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org squeeze-backports main
After fixing your sources.list apt-get update
I would also suggest you do
apt-get upgrade followed by
apt-get dist-upgrade

Have fun and welcome to Debian.
I should clear that i have internet! but network adapter of my machine is not recognized by Debian so i have decided to use Debian CDs as repository! there are some sites that generate source.list :
http://debgen.simplylinux.ch/
again thanks for great answers :-x
