Hackers, as far as I was told are the "good guys", as in taking down crud sites, such as child porn and illegal porno and so forth. They don't want to be associated with the next thing: Crackers. The HACKERS are a separate entity that people get confused with All The Damn Time and HACKERS LOATHE that.
Wherein, a CRACKER is a guy who writes spyware, trojans and viruses to get into your computer to steal things, such as bank accounts, money from many sources, credit cards and passwords to sites. THIS guy no one wants.

Hackers hack, crackers crack.
Hackers access your computer then just take a look what you do using that system. While crackers, access your computer and they do bad things, like changing the password, data, etc. In other words, crackers do negative things to the system they have access. That's the difference in plain English.
