Malformed line in source list

I have the nearly the same problem as this user:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2019042
except I only get the error:

E: Malformed line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-multiverse.list (dist parse)

my sources.list looks like this
Code:
# deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted
## Major bug fix updates produced after the final release of the
## distribution.
## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'universe'
## repository.
## N.B. software from this repository is ENTIRELY UNSUPPORTED by the Ubuntu
## team, and may not be under a free licence. Please satisfy yourself as to
## your rights to use the software. Also, please note that software in
## universe WILL NOT receive any review or updates from the Ubuntu security
## team.
# deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe
# deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy universe
## Uncomment the following two lines to add software from the 'backports'
## N.B. software from this repository may not have been tested as
## extensively as that contained in the main release, although it includes
## newer versions of some applications which may provide useful features.
## Also, please note that software in backports WILL NOT receive any review
## or updates from the Ubuntu security team.
# deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
# deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security restricted main multiverse universe #Added by software-properties
# deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security universe
# deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security universe
and my edgy-multiverse.list looks like this:
Code:
# automatically added by gnome-app-install on 2007-02-02 22:43:25.526790
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security multiverse
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-updates multiverse
The error occurs whenever I try to open the package manager or anything related, I think
Thanks in advance for any help, I'd really appreciate it.
