All is good but after connecting with any host friend the host pc freezes. Any idea what is doing this?

Please, provide some information:
1) Operation system installed on host PC (and is it 32-bit or 64-bit);
2) Version of TeamViewer installed.
3) What type of connection (view desktop, transfer files or VPN emulation mode) do you use?
4) Is freezing permanent? I.e. what happens? If you press "Caps Lock", "Scroll lock" or "Num lock", will indicators on your keyboard go on/off?
5) Can you press Alt+Ctrl+Del (if you're on Windows or similar combination if you're running other operation system) and see changes on your monitor?
6) Try to close all applications running (even those running in background, I mean applications which only have icons in system tray in Windows) except TeamViewer and try connect again. Does your system still freeze?

The same thing is happening to me. I'll be able to connect to my Host PC through my remote PCs browser but twice my Host PC has frozen at some point while I was connected.

For my host PC:
1) Windows 7 Professional 64bit
2) TeamViewer Version: 7.0.12979
3) I believe I'm using the View Desktop connection, I know I'm not using the transfer files or VPN emulation mode
4) I believe that it is freezing permanently, I don't recall any of my keyboard functions working (caps lock, numlock etc.)
5) When the Host PC freezes I have no control over the computer, ctrl-alt-del doesn't work, alt-f4 doesn't either. I've had to reboot the system each time this has happened
6) I haven't tried closing everything else yet, but will do so the next time I get a chance.

In the mean time, what could possibly be causing this?
