My laptop has been doing the same thing. I think mine's overheating as well but at times after it had been off all evening and was completely cool, it would still freeze and shut off unexpectedly. I recently found out (after figuring out what the flashing thing in the front was) that my battery had completely lost its charge (even though I always have it plugged in) and wouldn't charge itself back. I bought a new battery but haven't put it in yet to see if that helps. Perhaps the battery going kerfluey may be related to overheating.
