Short answer : no

Long answer : This appears to be a ploy that most spyware programmes use to make you think that they are working well on your system.  Without cookies the great majority of websites would not work

NO  ;D delete them from SAS, and clean your cookies regularly from the browser's interface. You can also use CCleaner for that:
