I am running this script and it just spins at executing Query for hours… How long should this take before you see a result? Is there a way to tell if it is actually doing anything?

I try this usually…
1) copy the db files using windows explorer which should be possible since SQL should not be locking it.
2) delete the db from sql.
3) attach the files back. The original files should be there…step (1) is just extra precaution.
4) run dbcc checkdb to confirm no corruption.
We got into this sometimes when the disk subsystem is down when SQL starts…
