What is a usb mixer for recording and What would be better than the mbox2 with pro tools 8?
A USB Mixer is an audio mixer with a built-in USB audio interface. It is sometime better than a stand-alone interface since you can plug in more microphones and instruments at once. They usually get mixed to a stereo mix, so it isn't possible with most of these mixers to track a drum kit or other instrument that requires a lot of mics and individual tracks. You can't use a USB mixer with Pro Tools 8. Pro Tools LE 8 only works with the MBox and the Digi 002/003 hardware from Avid. Pro Tools M-Powered 8 works with M-Audio USB and Firewire audio interfaces. If you want to run Pro Tools 9 (the current version), you can use any USB mixer that has ASIO (PC) or Core Audio (Mac) drivers.

When recording a band with xenyx 1662 fx mixer do the tracks come up as different tracks on the computer or one track with all the instruments on it?
The Xenyx 1622FX comes with an external USB audio interface that connects via RCA cables to the mixer's tape in/out jacks. The mix recorded to the computer will be a stereo stream of the main mix output, so all the instruments will be combined together. Beheringer does not (yet) sell a mixer with multi-channel USB or Firewire audio output.

Is it possible to get a program for the PC where you can plug in and record the guitar if so please note or add a link thnx?
It depends on how serious you want to get, I have a pretty basic / cheap setup. I use a program called Kristal Audio to record. If you google Kristal audio you will find it. I think it is a free download. You also need a usb interface or someway to connect your guitar to the computer. I have a Behringer 'guitar link'. Again if you search for a 'usb audio interface' you will find something for sale. When I bought the Behringer usb interface the recording program came with it, so maybe you should check usb interfaces out first.
