Here's the easy way:

	echo 'http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stable-proposed-updates main' \
		>>/etc/apt/sources.list
	apt-get update
	apt-get install linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64
	vi /etc/apt/sources.list; # remove the new stable-proposed-updates entry

If you prefer an ftp site, [1] should do it.  (The APT way is preferred
because it checks checksums.  ftp.us.debian.org is a round-robin alias
for several mirrors not directly controlled by Debian.)

Thanks,
Jonathan
