Original issue is fixed in 1463, but related there's related issue:
"The problem has been mitigated. MM 4.03 (1463) does not crash when I run games. After I quit a game, MM4 pops up from my taskbar and flickers, and cannot be minimized, although it can be resized." which i confirmed.

I was able to replicate flickering in 1466 after I installed and started http://download.cnet.com/Pro-Pinball-Fantastic-Journey-demo/3000-2099_4-10053298.html I guess that possible issue is that Pro Pinball: Fantastic Journey is very very old game 1999 and make some conflicts.

I also created Video showing flickerring and upload it to FTP.

Peke, can you clarify? Are you able to replicate the problem reported by the user in which MM crashes? If it's just a flicker, then isn't that issue already tracked at 0008028 / 0008800 ?
