Cookie.2o7 & Cookie.doubleclick

Hi!

I've been scanning my whole system everyday with the antivirus and everytime Bitdefender is finding some issues to be solved... Today I took a closer look to the issues and surprisingly I'm having problems with the same cookies: 2o7 and Doubleclick. Bitdefender states that these cookies were already disenfected... but they insist to cause issues when antivirus scans my system.

My questions:

1) Shouldn't Bitdefender avoid these cookies before they get into my system?

2) What should I proceed once these cookies are already in my system? may I permanently delet them?

Thanks in advance!
