My hard drive might be failing, but I reinstalled the OS then Starcraft II and am going to play it until my genius bar appointment tomorrow.

I didn't read the responses, but it sounds at first like it could be a logic board issue.

I'm back, but problem still there. I ran a suggested cleaning program, which perfectly cleaned all of my bookmarks and passwords, but the freezing is still there. I guess the HD backup is a good idea, and then i should get a new one and just copy everything? Is there a way to test your HD before replacing? Problem is i am super-busy and unable to work....
- boot into the OS X installer, utilities menu>disk utility theres some tests in therePIZZA

I had the logic board replaced not so long ago, so i know what the failure of that one looks like. That wasn't cheap to fix either....

Bumpin' this thread for a good cause.
Apple is completely replacing my computer with a brand new, decked out 27" iMac. 8gb ram, 1gb video card, etc and the Quad Core processor. For free. Can I get a fuck yeah?

If you think you have a trojan or something like that, do a Software update from the Apple menu, and download all updates.

Ok, so i bought a new HD (after wasting hours on test/ disk permission repair rounds, booting from disk and running all sorts of disk management programs) and did a clean install. Migration manager won't let me copy most of my stuff from the old HD, so that must have been on the edge i guess.... On the up site: i now have a very clean system. I'm just a little afraid about all the work and projects still on the old one.....
