Microsoft, Enterprise Manager, SQL 2000--Database Backup using maintnance Plan not working

I am using Maintnance Plan to do nightly backups.  I have one database that for some reason the job shows that it's executing put it never finishes.  The database is full recovery mode.  At fist I had several databases in the maintnance plan, but then I saw that this one database was not completing, so I removed it and placed it in it's own maitnance plan.  It runs for days and never finishes.  However, when I do a backup from query analyzer, the back-up completes fine.  Any ideas?
