MY CD burner stopped in the middle of a session, saying
that the drive was busy. When I try to access it now, it
says that the drive is busy, and my computer freezes for a
while. Also, it won't open, whether I try to open it with
a program, or press its eject button. It doesn't respond
any other way. How can I fix this?

Congrats with a nice new coaster :)
Completely shutdown your PC (turn the power OFF) and restart it.
While it restarts, eject the CD - this should work
(otherwice shutdown again and open the drive with an emergency pin ).
If this happens again, don't run any other programs while you burn
(especially, various media players).
