Word on the street is that people are having luck removing the coating from the hooks, in some cases just the top hook. Something about allowing better conductivity which prevents static building up and being unable to discharge through the hooks or something. edit: that explanation makes zero sense and I'm not accurately stating it. will try to find the correct info.

There was a thread on Amazon's discussion site where multiple people were reporting an immediate halt to the freezes after using sandpaper or a dremel tool to remove the coating from the top hook. I can't verify this myself as I sent back my cover even though they didn't require me to.
