squeeze is very old now so I would like to know if there is there a way to allow the system to update or does it now have to remain on an old version forever now?

If you set a static I.P. did you remember to specify the DNS server addresses? You could try adding Google DNS (8.8.8.8)
Installing packages from newer Debian distributions would likely break things. It is stuck on squeeze.
