What's up with freezing gears? Go SS or what?

Will be new to winter biking and winter commuting this season and wanted to ask about derailer (sp) freeze... I like the idea of leaving the Trek mountain bike I am planning on riding as is (w/ gears) in order that I can do some other winter biking and have full access to shifting but am wondering about freeze up, how to deal with it, avoid it and what others think about single speed.

I am considering a super cheap mtn bike purchase ($1-50; garage sale, Godwill etc) for some SS experimentation and am just wondering what others think/do...
