I turned it down two notches and my mouse freezing problem was solved. Turned out during a recent driver upgrade it was set to Maximum. I figured it was the Palm Check feature of the laptop's touchpad, meant to disable mice whilst typing fast. Something was disabling the mouse as I was moving around. However, I sat down and thought about the problem and noticed that if I moved the TouchPad on my laptop after the external mouse appeared frozen my external mouse would be responsive again. I recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 so my first reaction was to assume that something broke because "stuff is new." I'd be moving it, then the mouse would just stop.

I recently noticed that my external Microsoft Arc Touch Mouse would freeze every few minutes. of China Hungary India Indonesia Ireland Israel Italy Jamaica Japan Kuwait Latvia Lithuania Luxembourg Macao S.A.R.I'm just blogging this to make sure I remember it, but also to help others who might need this fix.
