Having these tools is probably not illegal. But using them illegally is
illegal :) Could you send me some more info "off-list" about this. Knowing
how to use these tools will probably help me making my sites more secure, am
I not right? :)

Cookies are HTTP headers, nothing more, nothing less. The minimum "tool" you need is telnet. If you're writing web applications and don't know that, please take the time to read the HTTP spec, and then the cookie spec. Google for them.
