If I understand you want the links in your posts to open in a new window and not all your links to do that.

You could edit "The Loop" which starts here

<?php define('WP_USE_THEMES', false); get_header(); ?>

adding <base target="_blank" /> after that line. Then before the end of the loop, which looks something like this

<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

you could set the base target back to self.

At least in theory, I think this should work but you may have to play with the exact location of the base target self code so that if you allow comments they don't open in a new window.

If your talking about links in a sidebar, there is a button on the bottom of the add link page that will allow you to set the link for blank
