Can cookies get on my computer if I haven't been to their site?

HI, I was wondering if three cookies from a site could end up on my computer if I have never visited that site. I know for sure I haven't been there and I would blame the boyfriend except he hasn't been at my parents house for 2weeks. (it's my home computer) The cookies are from a porn site and I didn't go there. The cookies are deleted every few days by me so I know what's there.

Is this possible? Where did the cookies come from?

Could someone else have used the computer?
