This looks a lot like a uni assignment:

For your "freeze" problems: run it under the debugger in netbeans. When
it "freezes", pause execution and look at the event dispatch thread
(EDT); see what it's doing and what it's waiting for.
You really haven't provided enough information, or complete enough code,
to give you more of an answer. What GUI? I don't see anything GUI
related in the code you posted.
I'm not sure this is relevant to you, but as general advice: Make sure
you never do anything affecting the GUI from any thread except the event
dispatch thread. Ever. Use deferred tasks (ref: SwingTask, Runnable,
etc) if possible, or use typical thread synchronization mechanisms.
