   You didn't say what version of Debian you were using.  I'll assume you're running 

the "potato" release.

   First, make sure you have the security updates site listed in your 

"/etc/apt/sources.list" file.  If it's not in there, just add this line at the bottom 

of that file:

deb <a href='http://security.debian.org' target='_blank'><u>http://security.debian.org</u></a> potato/updates main contrib non-free

   Then just run apt-get (e.g. "apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade") or use dselect or 

your package favorite tool and you'll have all of the security updates.
