I did notice you had a / on the end of your sitenames, which I don't have in my sources.list file, but I added it to see what happens and an update seemed to work fine. Then I sent the above message that it looks okay to me. But when I got around to doing a dist-upgrade with the extra slash, I got a bunch of errors. So I removed the extra slash, and now my box is upgrading properly. If you're getting errors, perhaps you should change your sources.list file to:
deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian sarge main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org sarge/updates main contrib non-free(I've never been able to figure out the syntax of this file; I always just copy it from a working system.)
