If defrag freezes, then you may have errors on your hard drive. Run Scandisk (the same way you ran defrag from the run screen, type in 'scandisk' as the command) and select Thorough and to automatically fix errors. A standard scandisk will no do a surface scan and the errors will remain.
If your hard drive has errors that scandisk needs to fix, defrag will either give you an error message about it or lockup, your situation being the ladder. If scandisk finds and fixes the errors, then defrag should start working for you. But there are no guarantees in life I suppose.
