It's because the of the action it's performing. You'll need to use a scripting language like PHP to handle the form.

You can find plenty of free form processor scripts here: http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Form_Processors/index.html

If your web host doesn't support PHP, though, you can use a free form service like Bravenet (http://www.bravenet.com) to handle the forms so that Outlook doesn't open. :)
