Do you have IE-Spyad installed?
I have a relatively "fast" machine, and it takes 10-20 seconds or more on my machine because IE-Spyad adds many items to "015 Trusted zone enumeration" (actually it's a "distrusted" zone).
If you don't have IE-Spyad installed, then I'm not real sure what the problem may be.
Have you just let it run and see if it will continue?
I would think 10-15 minutes would be plenty of time to see if it will actually finish or just "hang".

Thanks, Micah 6:8. I feel really stupid. I never thought IESpyad was the problem, but it seems so. I recently discovered it and installed it, and gave it no further thought (as there's no icon needed in my Security folder, so none to get my attention). HijackThis took it's time - about four minutes - but it completed the scan. I was used to the previous versions being so quick. Thanks so much for the heads up on this. Well, back to preschool for me...Man, are those tiny desks gonna hurt.

I think you're being way too hard on yourself.
I had the same thoughts after I installed IE-Spyad, then ran Hijack This! for the first time afterwards.
So, be sure to save a tiny desk for me....
