Try using a different USB cable. Might be a slim chance that your cable isn't shielded properly.
You said this happens with ripping vinyl too? It's possible the hum is in your turntable cables but you'd hear it playing the vinyl too.
And folks, telling him to use a different tool isn't solving his problem. If there is a ground loop that ought to be addressed whether or not he uses Traktor.

I have a complex array of microphones that I use for all Traktor recordings. I use two mounted above each channel fader to ensure I get a full stereo image and 6 to cover the full range of the crossfader. Depending on what kind of inventory I have to hand I might set up a few next to the USB port to ensure I capture all the digital output. All the mics are connected to a pedal that I converted into a multi-trigger to ensure that all the recordings start as close together as possible. It gets close but you still need some post mix tweaking. After that its a simple case of dropping each recording into its own channel in Ableton and syncing those bad boys up. Probably the best mp3 you'll ever hear (especially if you have a 7.1 surround system).

For vinyl ripping I use Reaper as I want my purchased records at 24bit. Mixes get recorded in Traktor. You definitely have a grounding issue. Try each piece of hardware separately to isolate the problem. My guess would be the mixer but rule out the decks and ground everything including your soundcard. Also try removing the power supply from your laptop as this can also cause issues with some models.
Just noticed the laptop power supply has already been suggested.

You will have a record out on your mixer. Run a rca (phono) into one of you audio 6 inputs and set as jester suggests. Pictures shouldn't be required.
If the earthing issue lies with your mixer however you will still get hum. Try plugging an ipod into your mixer only (disconnect everything else)and monitor on headphones then test output to speakers. If no hum at both stages then you're closer to finding the culprit.
