Have you ever seen the last Star Wars movie (Return of the Jedi)? At the end, the evil emperor tempted Luke to feed on his anger...look at the hopelessness and do what he can to destroy him (the emperor). He actually coaxed Luke to do it, too. Then Luke grabbed his lightsaber and attempted to strike him down, only to be stopped by Vader.
I think that swearing at the devil is something he wants us to do...he wants us to get mad at him and want to destroy him, for it feeds our anger to where we lose our focus. Our focus should be on the Lord, and it is HE who will deal with the devil, and has! That's why the ******* has no power over you ;)
So what to do when you're ticked at the devil. Look to Jesus in the Gospels for this one...He fought off the devil's temptations and attacks with the truth of scripture.
I also find it's a good idea to not give the devil credit for his works (like giving credit to bin laden...he's proud of it and gladly accepts the credit).
Conclusion:
So the answer to your question is, yeah, it's ok to, but is it good to? I'd suggest keeping your focus on the Lord, and let HIM deal w/ the devil.

You could call him a poopy head but what would that accomplish for you? It's kind'a like when I am with someone who is driving and they swear at the car next to them because it did something wrong. That's intelligent. The windows are rolled up, the other car is speeding away, they can't hear you because of the street noise ... and .. oh yeah ... cars don't have ears.
Other than that - yeah go swear at that bad ol' devil.

The devil symbolizes humanities darkside. It is not a physical being but the constant struggle to find peace within ourselves. Its OK to swear at it but there is nothing there to hear you.

Someone would not swear at someone they do not believe in!!
And those who choose to believe in the devil wisely choose not to swear, or speak to the devil!!

Jude 8-10
"Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries(likely angels). Yet Michael, the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said "The Lord rebuke you!" But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves."
Rather than personally cursing such a powerful angel as Satan, Michael deferred to the ultimate, sovereign power of God. This is the supreme illustration of how Christians are to deal with Satan and demons. Believers are not to address them, but rather to seek the Lord's intervening power against them.

it is not good to swear any time...but to command satan in the Name of Jesus The Christ is alowed for those of The True Christian Faith.
