Thanks Stephen,
I have been holding off upgrading Debian as I have some php stuff that
will not work with php ver 5.3.n+

It has gone end of life - 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/2011/msg00238.html

So it has probably been pulled from the main debian repository.

You could use http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/ as an 
interim step before moving to a supported version of debian (squeeze).
