Thanks to all who replied. I tried messing with cable positioning, changing
outlets, and a few other things. I was unable to get the hum to dis-appear
whenever I connected something external.
I gave up when I noticed I got a hum when I connected an external USB Sound
Blaster (it still hummed when it wasn't even connected to the computer).
I decided to take the cable out of the equation. I purchased an optical
cable and connected the external USB Sound Blaster to the amp with that
cable.
Works like a charm now. No hum.

Those problems can be from the cable running too close to another cable or
power distribution problems. If it's the later some times just rearranging
the electrical plugs can change the phasing otherwise you may have to plug
into another outlet preferably on another breaker but for more extensive
info I find that http://www.avsforum.com/ is the place to go.
