It could be your environment... maybe static electricity... my buddies
has also complained about this before..

So, I moved my mic a little further away from the CPU and toned down
the mic volume... works like a charm for me...

Also keep mic and cable away from speakers and CRT.

I would also add: direct the mic, and mic cable, away from the power supply.
Some power supplies are not correctly shielded and do give off interference.
