I apologize for my late response, as I have been at work for the past 8 hours and have been unable to test out the various fixes that you all have mentioned. I have managed to fix the problem with one suggestion, but I wish to thank you all for the support and report on testing the other fixes, and the end result.
@Emma,
I thank you for suggesting this, as it was something that escaped my mind completely. Sadly, it did not fix the problem. I tried waiting for the cell to reset, which I have set to 3 days, in both an inn and in the vampire testing cell (as there is a bed there.) Both attempts made no progress, and Vilja seems to remain an adamant shopoholic, at least for the time being. Regretably, I never posted my load order, which could have saved time to help pinpoint the problem. Regardless the problem is now fixed, and your advice was not in vain, so please read on if you so choose.
@Leonardo2,
I thank you for this suggestion, as it is something I would not have thought up of. The only problem with this is that I currently use the newest UOP Supplemental fix, and have been regularly updating them as Arthmoor makes them available, so I am not sure if the bug this wonderful addon fixes is the true problem, as it is already..... Fixed. Sorry for that, and I will post my load order for reference, just in case.
@amgepo and Emma,
I must thank you and Emma for this, as this was the fix that remedied Vilja's "shop till you drop" complex. After going to Colovian Traders and bringing Vilja to my PC via console command, everything went back to normal. Granted, after I spoke with her and she bragged about the good deal she got buying 12 pairs of iron boots, there was a minor glitch after I exited the dialogue menu only to have her talk to me again, but I am sure this was just the script correcting itself. A brilliant idea you two conceived, and I thank you for it. I will still test this out for a while and see if there are any other discrepancies that I should report, but I believe Vilja is ready to continue her adventures in Cyrodiil.
I am honestly not sure why this persisted for so long, other than the fact that I fast traveled right after I told her to do the shopping. I will try to allow the script time to get situated before I do something impulsive again. I thank you all for your help, though I was not expecting to cause so much trouble. I hope this is just an abberation I alone am experiencing, but if it is not then I hope that you, Emma, and CDCooley will find this resolution useful for anyone else. I am happy to have contributed something to this fantastic project, and I wish you luck in the releas of ver 3. I will post my load order now as a reference, just in case:

On a side note, @Brozly
I can confirm this to be true, not only for Vilja, but for other companions as well... In my case, Wintermoon from HoD (and a few CM Partners,) Companions Viconia and Stoker Wolff, and a few others have experienced the same problem with those weapons and their god-like scripts. I usually try not to hit any companion with me when I had that sword (or any others in that set) equipped, but nothing is perfect.... My aim being one such thing. This is also for the sake of reference and interest.
