You just checked sources,list yet you use:
X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook CWS, Build 9.0.6604 (9.0.2911.0)
Hmm, have to wonder. At least you're bright enough to have a
semi-decent anti-virus program checking your mail.
As for the topic at hand, it makes no difference whether one uses
"stable" or "etch" until that is, Lenny goes stable.
Of course, people who had Sarge and used the word "stable" would now
have Etch, and without doing apt-get (or aptitude) dist-upgrade, could
find their systems in a mess. A dist-upgrade should sort out most problems.
