Enterprise Manager hang

My customer's SQL 2000 .818 box has started timing out when he tries to use Enterprise manager to backup or restore a database.

After giving him the command to run in Query Analyzer, I took a look at his backup tables in MSDB and found roughly 3.8 million records in each...dating back to mid 2005.

I'll be running sp_delete_backuphistory tonight. :)

If you don't want to use the cursor driven proc provided by MSFT, click here for Tara Kizer's custom script:
isp_DeleteBackupHistory

Sorry for the long delay between postings...its been slow :)
