Hold down CTRL when you click which will open a new tab in firefox/chrome. As for applying it to all links, it is possible, but it wouldn't affect already posted posts due to the way phpbb works. So CTRL click is easier for now until I can find an elegant solution which would apply it to existing posts too, without manually going through them and resubmitting.
