In the interim, this should at least allow you to kill the log file:

1. Perform a full backup of your database. Don't skip this. Really.
2. Change the backup method of your database to "Simple"
3. Open a query window and enter "checkpoint" and execute
4. Perform another backup of the database Change the backup method of your database back to "Full" (or whatever it was, if it wasn't already Simple)
5. Perform a final full backup of the database.
