Greetings,

        If you have the hardware to spare, setup a replication server and run your 
backups against that server. It's clean, you can shutdown your database 
completely on the slave and perform backups however you want.  I use it both 
at home and at work and get wonderful results. Hope that helps...

Jeremy
