im having a nightmare at the mo, with adware and tracking cookies. im in the process of resolving it. i know they can get in ur pc, but can they access my bank if ive logged into internet banking, or get my credit card details if ive logged on to my card servicing?

Not from cookies but if you have any keylogger programs on your system then yes. A keylogger is a program which records all of your key strokes for example, your bank login info. Some keyloggers can then access the interent and email the recorded information to an e-mail address, where the hacker can see it.
Just be careful of what your download and install in your system. A good fire wall and virus protection should keep you safe.

Malicious software such as *keyloggers* can monitor every keystroke you make on your computer.
However, if you think you're infected with either spyware or a virus, go to this site http://www.mbusbyuk.info/links.html and scroll down to free online virus %26 spyware scanners. I suggest you select Panda ActiveScan: it will clean and disinfect anything it finds on your computer. (Make sure you do a full system scan, i.e. *Scan My Computer*)
Good Luck!
yeah those places that have you fill out pages and pages of offers like coolsavings and others use the spyware and adware to track your shopping habits and people can hack it. I got an adware on my computer from something I downloaded and I can't seem to get rid of it
Yes.
Yes if the virus is a trojan
(u know the trojan horse right?)
yeah
yes
Cookies, no. They track your internet browsing (websites visited, etc). Only installed spyware/adware that is on your system can see what information you are typing in the forms on the websites, so that could be sent back to whatever hacker/programmer conjured up that spyware.
