I then checked my singers list and it only shows about 8 songs. Most singers names show 0 songs next to them. If the rebuild hadn't finished I assume the dialog box would have still been showing. Do you think I can do a restore point and go back to the previous version of Hoster? I tired that on the second computer and now hoster won't open.

I don't think it built your database correct. The only way to put it right now is go to your C:/MTU/Hoster folder and delete the songs.mdb file first.
My next question is as you say it only stayed open about 10 seconds, if all your song files are on an external hard drive, did you have that plugged in before starting 5.03 ?

If your song files are on an external it must be plugged in before starting starting Hoster then the dialog will pop up informing you it is rebuilding the database which will certainly take more than 10 seconds more like 10 mins or more. Once it's finished Hoster will open and should work as expected.
Even if you want to go back to 5.02 you will still have to delete the songs mdb and make sure your external is plugged in before starting it the very first time.
