Data Execution Prevention & coupons.com

In all my years using Windows Vista I have been very fortunate to have avoided the block to web sites caused by the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) feature in Vista. However, now that I am trying to become a coupon shopper I have run into a problem with the coupons.com web site which is a core coupon site.

I have figured out the process for disabling DEP for a particular program, but I do not know which program to turn off from the dozens of program options under Computer/Advanced System Settings-System Properties/Performance Options/Data Execution Prevention/Add

Does anyone have any idea what I should select or where I might be going wrong? Thanks

My wife had the DEP errors with IE9 crashing when trying to use the Coupons.com website. Even though her account has admin rights, and the Coupons printing software was installed as Admin, the Coupons.com website would not work (or print coupons) until I found out by accident that you have to start IE as the Administrator - right click on the IE icon in the bottom tool bar, select Run as Administrator.

I uninstalled all the Coupons.com software (toolbar and printing software) and reinstalled just the printer software and had the same result. It only works if IE is Run as Administrator.
