X11 Forwarding with SSH not working [SOLVED]

Question

I'm trying to follow the X11 forwarding guide on the wiki but to no avail.
I'm using Putty and Xming from a Windows machine to SSH into the ArchLinux machine over my home network.
When I log in through SSH with X11 forwarding enabled, my display variable is set to "localhost:10.0". Running xclock gives me the following error: "Error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0".
I'm pretty sure Xming isn't the problem, since if I manually change the DISPLAY variable to "[my windows machine IP]:0.0", I can run xclock and see it appear.
From what I can see, it should be working.

It's easy.
Start Xming.
Configure SSH (here's my confg):
