You can try this code, but remember that changing the UI is not a good ideia:

var addEvent = (document.addEventListener) ?
    function(target,event,fn){
        if(target) return target.addEventListener(event,fn,false);
    }:
    function(target,event,fn){
        if(target) return target.attachEvent(('on' + event),fn);
    },
allLinks = document.links || document.getElementsByTagName('a');
for(var i=0;i<allLinks.length;i++)
    addEvent(allLinks[i],'mouseup',function(e){
        var e = e  || event;
        if(e.which===3){
            alert('Open in new tab/window');
            e.preventDefault();
            return false;
        }
    });
