D3DOverrider didn't crash on me yet, but I'm sure you know best.
So any solution for the strange flickering and high CPU usage when the profiles window is in view? Or is it just me? I'm with Catalyst 10.6 now.
D3DOverrider has an exception list, those programs listed in there may cause issues and that's why they are black listed :P
About the high CPU usage issue, try disabling overclocking in Settings.
