ok, so in my strat, i have some humming goin on, but that shouldnt be because i have 2 humbuckers in it. so, im thinkin something wrong with grounding or sheilding. but, whenever i touch the mouting screws for the pickup selecter, the pickup selecter itself, the jack plate, or some other things.... the humming goes away. this leads me to believe its a grounding problem. what do u guys think? what should i ground (assuming it is in fact a grounding problem)? thanks.

its probably a grounding problem, touch all the metal parts on your guitar... does the humming stop with all of them? check all your grounds... resolder bad looking ones
