Installed Open Bitcoin Wallet onto another pc.
Loaded my original wallet.dat backup created 8-2011.
After 7hr's or so, the blockchain was loaded fully, and all is well.
I actually made an extra 4btc from doing this, assuming they were sent to this wallet.dat file after I had been using a more recent one.
Yey.
Interesting solution. Glad to hear it worked out!Loaded my original wallet.dat backup created 8-2011.

I need to find my old wallet backups from other installations and create watch only wallets for just this reason.Loaded my original wallet.dat backup created 8-2011.

Yes, and now days every 1 btc is worth $47 range... so I made 200 bucks for my stressful endeavor. Lol.
If any of you try this, feel free to let me know if it worked for you as well..
I was reading here & there for anything, and read that -resync, or rebuilding the blockchain would work. I figured i'd try this first, and it ended up working, so I'm sure there is other solutions that may work for different situations.

Definit, in response to your PM, I followed the instructions for Windows in this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/pywallet-22-manage-your-wallet-update-required-34028
Once I had deleted the stuck tx, I ran bitcoind -rescan, but it would not return any messages even after half an hour at 25% CPU load (my wallet is 6 MB). So I shut it down and started bitcoin-qt and the tx was gone. There is now a 0.- transaction in my wallet in its stead.
I highly recommend backing up wallet.dat if you want to try and do the same.

I ended up trying this, but the wallet was left with nothing in it after it did the rescan.. so I reverted back to the original...

gettin worried..............
I have had txes stick before, but not like the one I am dealing with now. This is now over 20 hours, and not any that are over a couple BTC.
i hope so... this gives me a little hope....
This is interesting... I just opened up my firewall and allowed the receiving wallet (which saw the transaction right away) to become a node, and now blockchain.info sees that my node has the transaction. Maybe I am helping it along now by running a node?!?!? I have a feeling this will eventually confirm... it's just taking forever. I was in the developers IRC channel last night and someone was saying that there is a backlog of transactions right now, which I take to mean that transactions with low or no fees are getting set aside for ones with higher fees until the network catches up.
my transaction isn't even found...
i made a previous transaction with the same address that went through just fine and confirmed right before i made this transaction. Several other transactions went through fine just now as well.

I was moving some coin yesterday between a blockchain.info wallet and a 0.8 Windows client, and it has been in limbo unconfirmed for almost 21 hours now. Only 4 nodes has it as of now according to blockchain.info.http://blockchain.info/tx/238253c8271ea81daf252146ca559110798f80b30f35239e0432d40cd332be1c

Tried to send this amount to my Gox account about 9 hrs ago, and it's sitting there.. at first i seen 8 nodes next to the unconfirmed, but now nothing but this.
