What is your default mail application? You can reinstall whatever it is and see if that fixes it, or you can change it.

Also what browser are you using? It seems like Netscape will do this if you are using it and you click on a mailto link and you are not using Netscape mail. One reason why I don't use mailto links any more.

If you are using Opera, make sure mail preferences are set to use the default email client on the computer. Netscape/Mozilla should work as long as the box to use it as the default mail client is not checked.
