    what soundcard are you using?
    because its obviously recording from a output on your soundcard.

    the only ones i know that are known for this are creative soundblasters.

    your speakers are plugged into outputs
    soundcards dont record outputs

    it has something to do with your soundcard settings

    you need to go to the control panel, and then to "sound" or whatever it is on your comp...
    then in that area, click the advanced tab underneath the volume properties

    then change your sound settings so that it records through the mic and not off the stereo master channel...
