I take it they are leccy windows  :D

Check the switches and the wires where they pass through the doors for dodgy connections first.  It is more likely to be the motors though, they live in a damp environment inside the doors.

Try giving the motors a bang next time they stop working and see if they start up again.

sounds to me like you have a loose relay, my car used to do this till i changed the relay then it was fine, try pressing the relays whilst you use the windows
