There are 2 types of white blood cells. They are called B cells and T cells. B cells put a "mark" on viruses. Then, T cells "kill" the viruses. BUT, if the B cells haven't "seen" the virus before. It will just "keep it's eyes open" (they don't really have eyes). If the same virus comes again, the B cell will remember and summon the T cells. Then, the T cells attack. Finally, it is game over for the virus.

What is the importance of capsules in causing disease?

You Must mean White blood cells. White blood cells kill bacteria by first engulfing them, this process i believe is called phagocytocis. They literally eat the bacteria and digest it.
