According to
http://lists.debian.org/debian-volatile-announce/2012/msg00000.html,
debian-volatile IS gone now. However, you have squeeze/updates in your
sources.list, so you already have the replacement. You should probably
delete the volatile lines.

Probably, spotting a new network card, udev has given you a new
interface in persistent-net-rules. Firestarter may be expecting to
firewall, say, eth0 but you're currently using eth1.

Check your network interfaces ('ip addr' and 'ip route' will help). If
you want, you can delete /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and
restart udev to re-number your interfaces.
