I recommend not changing back your sources.list and actually adding the 
security repository for Lenny as well.  It's rather rare for packages in non-
free to be updated, but you don't want to miss a security upgrade.  The 
security team will monitor and fix issue in Lenny until the Wheezy release or 
until one year after the Squeeze release (2012-02-06) whichever comes first.
