For some reason, my open windows on my desktop sometime lock to where i can't move them.

no. The only thing that could be the problem is a program called cocktail.
It enables me to change the original "show desktop" expose command. instead of moving all windows off screen, it pulls them into a box on the desktop.

If you start up Cocktail and go to the interface pane you will see this :

"The minimize desktop feature can cause unexpected system behavior on computers running Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later"

unselect "minimize desktop"
Your problem will be solved.
