what is more difficult and challenging : being a hacker or a cracker?
Being a hacker. That's because crackers can simply use existing tools, such as rootkits. Hackers actually have to come up with something new and difficult.
ummm... the word script kiddie comes to mind here. of course, most l33t d00dz who claim to be h4x0rz are really just script kiddies with no social lives.
being a hacker involves doing things that most ordinary people thing is impossible. solving problems that others find too hard, dreaming up problems that don't even exist, and solving them.
