Yes, there is. I am currently testing the program and ran into this problem when it misidentified my Zeiss ZE 100mm f/2 Makro Planar as a Canon 100mm f/2.
Go into the "Customize" mode for one of the images to which it is applying the wrong profile. You will see in the EXIF panel what it thinks the lens is. There is a menu item (I think under Preferences; I don't have my postprocessing machine handy) to "modify" the list of downloaded modules. Simply uncheck the offending lens from the list, and you will see the EXIF panel and the image preview update to reflect that. At the same time, sliders for manual vignetting adjustment and USM sharpening (including edge masking) become available in the edit window.
Now make sure in Preferences that it does not ask to download lens modules at startup. Alternatively, when you next start the program, clear the checkbox enabling that when it asks to do the downloads. If it does encounter another lens for which it has no profile, it puts up a little green icon in the filmstrip thumbnail for that image, which you can click to do the download.
I'm very impressed by DxO, but it has a big flaw: it clips all colours to the Adobe RGB 1998 gamut, no matter what output profile you specify. When the entire image is within gamut, I have found its colours to be accurate.
