Photoshop Elements :: 10 Indexing Has Been At 73% For 17 Hours

PSE 10 Elements Organizer in "Building index ..." has stayed at 73% for 17 hours.  Is it frozen?  Is it time to cancel and re-start indexing?  Reason for asking, when tried to convert PSE 8 to 10 in April, Adobe did not state that the freeze at 34% was "normal".  Have since then not been able to do a backup and had to manually move 4000+ photos from various files (resulting from the multiple conversion attempts) into the appropriate file to reconnect and just completed that task yesterday.  All files were reconnected; the catalog was repaired even though did not need to be and now the indexing problem.  It's been a long 6 months of struggle.
