coupon printer

I have recently come across the world of coupons :) and I have seen that most websites require you to use the coupon printer programme in order to print the coupons.

I looked up this programme on google, and came across a webpage of computer experts and other users, pretty much saying not to use it because it can cause viruses, and some people have had system shut downs etc. My dad works in computers, and he had a look and he said there is no way he would use it on his computer.

I have my own laptop I could use it on, but Im now reluctant to, but it seems every coupon I find, involves using it.

So Id like to know does anyone using it, ever had any problems? It seems like the company is being sued in the US too?

    It looks like if you want printed coupons then you have no choice but to install it.

    You need to way up whether the savings you are getting from the coupons are worth it.

    I've used it on both my laptops without any problems that I could tell.

    Seems so. Ive found so many coupons but which ever website they come from they all link back to using it. Pretty annoying.
