Delete, rename, or move out addr.dat. If the problem persists, then examine db.log again (latest messages). If it complains about any file which name starts with "blk", delete and re-download the block chain.

All the essential data are in wallet.dat.
Another file that you may want to keep is bitcoin.conf.
Block chain is stored in blkXXXX.dat and blkindex.dat. Replace them with files from the latest http://eu1.bitcoincharts.com/blockchain/blockchain-XXXX-XX-XX.tar
"database" contains transaction logs for block chain and peer databases. I think, it should be deleted when replacing block chain files.
addr.dat contains peer addresses. You may have to delete it if transaction logs are deleted or damaged.
__db.XXX – some database files. You may have to delete them as well.
.lock – can be deleted.
*.log – can be deleted.

The last bit of the blockchain is very CPU intensive... It goes extremely slow on lower end CPU's and takes for bloody ever and will seem to freeze.

Examine db.log and debug.log in .bitcoin directory. Try running bitcoind from console and see what messages it prints.
