The only time I've ever had WoW freeze on me is when the gfx card went
pear shaped.

Check and make sure it's not over heating and that the fan is working
ok, or it might go horribly wrong

Sounds like something is getting to hot and shuts down, check that your CPU
and GPU fans are working.

also for WoW to patch the launcher program must be run as an administrator
with Vista or the patch will fail.
