Just happend to me. By the way I have Vista. This is what happened -
1. was editing tags
2. MM hung - song kept looping
3. had to kill MM
4. restarted mm
5. closed mm
6. noticed a windows dialogue - something like MM has stoped responding
7. tried to restart mm - the it got stuck upgrading the database
8. tried the right control-left shift tab thing - didn't work
9. killed MM and it restart ok.
This happens to me quite a bit too. It seems to be after running MM3 [latest B4] and then quitting the program and starting it again. Often, the only way to stop the "upgrade" is to restart the computer.

MM is _supposed_ to do the db upgrade once: the first time MM 3 is run (if it doesn't detect a pre-existent MM3 db, and the user agrees to import the 2.5 db).
-Rusty
the part which says "import the 2.5 db" means that a new db is created with the information out of the 2.5 mdb file or it converts the old mdb in a new 3.0 format ??
i´m afraid loosing my data and after i installed mm3 it seems that boths versions using the same db. maybe someone can explain to me how the dual installation works safe 2 prevent data loss or db error in future.
i backupd my db only after the first start (and import process) of mm3
Simply put what MM3 is doing, it loads MM2 library and apron its image creates MM3 library. MM2 Library is copied and saved along with MM3 library in <User>\Application Data\MediaMonkey\ folder so do not worry if you think you have lost your database (do not see it in MM2) just copy that MediaMonkey.MDB into My documents\My Music\MediaMonkey and use it separately from MM3 as MM3 only Copy MM2 library if MM3 library is not initialized.
I have been using 1089 (B4) for a while, with brand new database and got this "bug" today. The rest of the story is the same: user aborted and everything seems fine again.
