Cracking is the aspect of breaking into a computer system. It can also be the act of breaking copy protection of a commercial program. It can be removing the license that copyrights a software or program. Usually it is a patch or a series of instruction to remove the copy protection so that the features of the program are changed from the demo version to full time version. In some ways it is also termed as an exploit that cracker accomplish with tools that aid them.
Cracking is done by the spread of root kit Trojans so that accessing is gained into other systems with out much of programming effort. The same goes to removing the license or copyright protections from programs. They think themselves as better than the programmers who have created the copyright or license protections but this effort is mediocre since they use automated tools. Hence those following these methods are not given the term hackers; rather they are termed as crackers.
