That's pretty vague. I assume that by "simon" you mean Simon the Sorcerer, but there are two of those (not to mention a couple of different versions of each). Do you mean that you get stuck if you load one particular savegame, or is it every savegame? I know you can pause the game with the Pause key, but that stops the sound and the music as well. Is it just walking that doesn't work, or is it all actions?

If it's just one particular savegame, your best bet is probably to file a bug report and attach the offending savegame.

I don't know. I vaguely remember that there are (or used to be?) some bugs (also present in the original game?) that could cause the game to become unresponsive, but that was only for a few seconds before becoming unstuck again so that doesn't sound like what you're describing. Someone else may have a better idea.
