Can't kill backup process

I have a SQL 7 database that won't let me perform a backup as it says
there is a backup of the trasaction log currently in progress. I found
the offending process and have tried to kill it via sql enterprise
manager, also tried using the KILL command (Kill <spid>) to no avail.

Short of bouncing the database, is there anything else I can try?

TIA
