Ok, so I was driving home today in my 2003 v6 mustang, and whenever i stopped at most every light, I felt as if the ABS was kicking in for a short time then turned off and then on and so more. When I parked my stang I could here a strange clicking noise by the front brakes and it smelled of brake pads. In addition the ABS light has been on for awhile. Any ideas?

I'd start by finding out why the ABS light is on. That's going to involve either reading the code yourself, or taking the car somewhere and having them perform the diagnostics.

I went down to a shop and they said that the abs wasn't able to communicate, and they said my front brakes were frozen but they couldn't figure out why the abs wasn't able to be read.
