Potioncat:
Two points.
I'm not sure, but I had the impression that hearing "Voldemort" 
caused pain to the DEs.  And along with that, possibly alerted LV.

Also, Snape isn't the only adult to tell Harry not to say Voldemort.

I'm not saying Harry should't say Voldemort...just that I can see 
why Snape doesn't want him to.
