Why did guy Fawkes do?
Most British people know that the Gunpowder Plot was simply to get rid of the Protestant king (who disliked Catholics). James I was simply another Protestant monarch to get rid of. Guy Fawkes was smuggled back to Britain from Spain to help with the plot, since he was...um...an explosives expert. Most historians believe, though, that the plotters were encouraged by spies and the plot was all a trick.
What was the gunpowerd plot?
I presume you mean the Gunpowder plot. It was a plot in 1605 to blow up James the First of England by planting a bomb under the House of Lords for the state opening of parliament. The 17th century was a time of religious conflict in Britain between Catholics and Protestants. James the First was a Protestant king and Catholic plotters thought it would be a good idea to kill him and replace him with a Catholic monarch (James's 9 year old daughter, Elizabeth). The plot failed because one of the plotters sent a warning to a Catholic Baron (William Parker) who passed it on to the authorities. Guy Fawkes (by far the most remembered, but actually a fairly small player in the scheme) was captured guarding 36 barrels of gunpowder in the cellars of the Palace of Westminster. The other plotters were captured a few weeks later after a battle. All the surviving plotters were executed. To this day in Britain, there is a bonfire night on November 5th - the date of the planned explosion where effigies of Guy Fawkes (the Guy) are burnt and fireworks let off.

How is Spain linked to the Gunpowder plot?
Spain is not linked to the Gunpowder Plot that I can find. Before the death of Elisabeth I of England some exiled English Catholics favoured the Infanta Isabela, daughter of Philip II of Spain, as the successor to Elisabeth II. I wouldn't call that a link. I believe the Gunpowder Plot was an all English operation.
