Default Mailto: link on web pages

In my internet options, I have mail set up for Outlook, but every time I
click on a link on a webpage to contact someone, it opens up Outlook
Express. I've tried resetting it by selecting some other program and then
going back and reselecting Outlook, but nothing seems to change it to make
it out the right application. Is there some other setting I'm missing?

Thanks,
Bob
