Hackers can get into websites that are password protected?
Phreakers just make free phone calls?
Freakers are tattooed pierced up sex fiends? Shit I married that!

if you want a vague idea of what they do along with the opportunity to stare at young angelina jolie's hot little ass, rent the movie "hackers." there's both hacking and phreaking in it, although it's still movie quality stuff so it's far fetched and not realistic. but it's still a pretty entertaining movie.
"hacker" is also a pretty loosely used term. there's the guys that actually know how to break into the systems and use exploits to their advantage, and there's what's known as "script kiddies." a script kiddie blindly uses tools(programs) made by real hackers to exploit holes and whatnot to gain access to systems, however they really have no idea what's going on behind the scenes. you could say "buffer overload" to them, and they'd stare back at you blankly.

technically speaking, if you say "hacker" you really mean someone that is really into hardcore programming and always wants to figure shit out.
but what you mean is "cracker" and you insult the hacker by calling them that.
a cracker is someone that wants to get into a system and do devious things. usually along the lines of the script kiddies that supersodomizeme is getting at.
there are white hat and black hat crackers/hackers - the white hats will dick with a site to see what is broken, and then either report the problem and how to fix it, or will just fix it and go away.
the black hat will use the hole to their advantage and do negative things. lately it usually involves "exploiting" wide open MS boxes and changing the main index page to a website and saying that you indeed have mad skillz and are not to be fucked with - usually done so in broken english because the bulk of these dumbfucks seem to be from the netherlands or korea where apparently there isn't much to do.
phreakers got started by Captain Crunch who is an old guy that really knew the system.
but with the advent of the digital switching systems, all of the phreaking techniques no longer work. war dialing, the boxes of color, tone generators, etc.
do a search and read old issues of 2600 (that was the frequency that when played into a phone, you could make free long distance calls).
also trust that I'm more L33t than you ever will be. I can't back that up, but I don't have to.
also, trust that you likely have had sex with more women than me.
