Computer Freezes

I know the subject is pretty general, however, I will try to give as much detail as I can. I have my laptop set to whenever I close the lid "Do Nothing" After the lap top sits for awhile, "usually overnight" when I try to open "Firefox" or "Explorer" the hour glass will come up as it is trying to open and then nothing. Neither will not open. It's like something is working in the background that is preventing it. I've checked the task manager and no applications are running. When I try to reboot, I usually get "Dummy Mixer Callback Window" trying to close. I've found DMCW to be associated with Dell Power Cinema so I uninstalled the Power Cinema. I haven't seen the DMCW since but the computer still has not changed. Once rebooted everything works find. Just to add, if I place the computer in Standby overnight the problem does not happen but I don't want to do this as I run antivirus scans and defrag during the night.

Any help would be appreciated...this is getting really frustrated. Here is my Hijack this Log::
