Ground hum from my Mbox 3

Hello good people.

I've just set up my studio in my new apartment, and discovered to my dismay that there is a hum coming from the speakers connected to my Mbox. The noise intensifies when the computer is working under a bigger load. Any tips to how I can combat this noise?

The sound can be heard here.

Will a pair of shielded xlr <-> jack cables do it? Or should I try changing to a higher quality USB cable between the Mbox and the PC?
