Now, I got a problem (again, search my name and you will a LOT of posts). I want my enemy units to freeze until I discover them (or when they enter my line of sight, and then attack me. I tried to use "Freeze unit" on triggers, but then they freeze and do not move, even if they're attacked, so that doesn't work... What am I supposed to do????

How about creating them just as you are about to enter the line of sight where they would be created.
An object in area condition and a few create object effects might do it for you.

Problems are here to be solved no?
Well, when you freeze units, they can't be 'unfrozen'. So when you active the trigger, they stay in that position the rest of the game.
I recommend you to use an AI-file (download one from the blacksmith, perhaps 'Immobile units' or 'Nomove'...) Attach this AI-file to your enemy. When you enter their line of sight, or by meaning of a trigger, they will attack you (even their friends when they are not visible)
I think that will be the best way to solve your problem. I had the same problem in my scenario, and that AI-thing worked real fine
