@martin: Sorry to hear you are having trouble uninstalling the Coupon Companion. I think it can be uninstalled from the Windows Control Panel.

If that did not work, you can delete the file with FreeFixer. The "Coupon Companion Plugin.dll" file should appear under "Browser Helper Objects" and/or "Internet Explorer Toolbars" in FreeFixer's scan result.

Did that solve the problem?
