squeeze is not supported anymore but you can use squeeze-lts.

It's been uploaded to squeeze-lts but has not reached the mirrors.

You can get it manually from http://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd/pool/main/b/bash/ if you can't wait.

I've got a Debian VM I maintain for giggles, and just out of masochism I've been running "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" for a while and watching nothing change.. Am I doing something wrong or is the whole process just slow?

    deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ squeeze-lts main contrib non-free
    deb-src http://http.debian.net/debian/ squeeze-lts main contrib non-free

You probably have:

    APT::Default-Release "squeeze";

In a configuration somewhere. Check /etc/apt and the various files in the subdirectories of that.

If you have that line remove it or change it to squeeze-lts
