Toy Story 1 & 2 on Blu-ray/DVD combo and also 2 tickets to see Toy Story 3. Save about $44!

Print off the two coupons and go to Target.


My wife likes Disney movies so we buy them all.

I remove virus's at my place of work, just a heads up, Coupon Printer is a virus, more or less spyware...... The trick is they make you install it before you can print the coupons off, than they give you a bunch of pop up and shits, pretty annoying. I remove this virus probably 10 - 15 times a week

^ Nice tip.

Actually you might want to re-research that.

That mainly speaks for itself. Only 2 false positives.


Ok lets think logic here. Why would Disney hire a company to send out a coupon printer that gives you spyware? Also why are thousands upon thousands of Slickdeal.net users never reporting that they got spyware/virus from this? I have yet to see a popup. This software is only to make sure you don't print out the coupon multiple times.

Do you not understand what I just said. That coupon printer is not a virus. Sorry but as an IT admin I take viruses pretty seriously and I don't send out viruses mmkay?

mmkay, i work remote pc, and i can tell you right now that when i run my scans on customers computers, Coupon Bar comes up. It is Spyware and Adware.. As an IT Admin i am sure you know the definitions of those. It states that it is not spyware or adware however that it does pose a security risk. If you want your passwords and credit card information taken than have it installed on your computer.

And just for another reference, it is not Disney that is choosing to provide you with the coupon bar, it is third party sites who are doing so. I am also assuming that when you download the program itself they as you for email address, which will only lead to spam. Most likely which will also lead to a virus.

here ya go, some more reference for you

http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/06/19/remove-and-uninstall-coupons-couponbar-and-coupon-printer-plugin/ "this one explains how it gives you ad's during browsing and spams your screen with pop ups."

http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=2184 "this one explains how it spams your pc with ads. Sounds really legit to me"

http://www.antispyware.com/glossary_details.php?ID=1452 " and this one even tells more about how it is a security risk to your pc."

Man for being an IT Admin, you sure know your shit.

Wrong program.

dude you need to stop

I ran the latest spybot.
Please tell me how 9 harmless registry keys will give me popups and steal all my info.
It doesn't even come up with any sys files or dlls.

IT IS A THREAT AND A SECURITY RISK, all i am saying is that it is classified as spyware and adware. Which in the end can lead to other security risks. If you love to use it so much than go ahead and use it.

idk about you, but i don't enjoy having spyware or adware on my computer.

1. like 2-3 people on here MAYBE have kids.

2. this is retarded.

3. shut up.

1. what do kids have to do with anything preston?
2. i have been over at stoshs desk as he has removed this off of peoples computer
3. he said it was spyware. which it is, which leaves you more susceptible to viruses
4. because YOU dont have viruses on YOUR computer doesnt mean other people wont.
