Then as soon as it's unfrozen, changes the bytes back to what they were before the freeze so there are no lasting effects. Otherwise, you'd get some serious graphics issues. I don't think freeze is the right word, but it's what everyone has called it because it always appeared frozen, when really it was just stuck in a loop.
There's a scenario where the activated loop is faster than the script can be read and so it misses the return or command to read next line.

Your fix may give it time to do so.
