Your sound system is misconfigured. You should never hear yourself from
your speakers, only from a feedback, but that is obvious. Now to FIX: 1.
Double click the little speaker icon in your system tray and then select
Options/Properties and make sure the Microphone is NOT checked in the
Playback mode then select the Recording mode and make sure it IS checked.
