Have anyone having this problem?

[bigMac001]

hello eveyrone, i been lurking around the site for quite some time, and i learned a lot of different tricks and info. well going on to the topic...

so my warcraft freezes about every 3 games of dota. it just unexpectedly freezes with no black screen or overheating. but the system itself runs smoothly still. And also it randomly warcarft wouldnt allow me to join another game and display a message something like "another application is using......."
all these problems didnt occur on my 9 year old powermac G4 with tiger. my current machine is a late 08 MBP with osx 10.5.6 any help or comment will be appreciated.

it just unexpectedly freezes with no black screen or overheating.

At this point does pressing Command-Option-Escape (force-quit) return you to Mac OS X?

but the system itself runs smoothly still.

Is that what you meant with this or are you referring to other programs?

warcarft wouldnt allow me to join another game and display a message something like "another application is using......."

This is a known issue and hopefully will be fixed. In the mean time, Warcraft must be exited (more likely force-quitted) and reloaded again to remove it.
