Cookies are not viruses. Cookies are small harmless text files used to identify you by the website that set them. For example, answers.com probably uses cookies to remember your log in, and so do most of the site on the internet that allow you to remember your log in.
Some cookies are used by advertising agencies to track which ads are shown when. As adverts are all over the internet, the cookies could be accessed by any number of websites. These are called "Tracking Cookies", however, the same thesis applies, if you have a cookie from Google ads, and I don't have Google ads on my site, I won't be able to access, or even know that, you have that cookie.
