Hello Van.

You can configure that behavior by going into Tools > Options > Applications and configuring "mailto" to open in outlook.

I found a solution under another similar question. This happens with the Google toolbar. Right click on the toolbar - click options- under "Web-browsing tools" uncheck, Use Gmail for "Mail To" links. It seems that the Google toolbar is set to override the Mail To setting in Firefox.
