Technically, you're right, though I would say "cracking" is more limited to decompiling an EXE to bypass copy protection, specifically...i.e. re-coding a game or software EXE to remove the CD check, for example. Hacking would be doing that with the goal of gaining access to a system or network, not just the software program itself.
Since
EU isn't technically copy-protected (in that it's a free download), cracking really isn't part of this discussion.
