Open new windows page

I can right click a topic in a web page and select "Open in new tab" or "Open
in new window". Is there a way that I can change settings in IE 8 that will
allow me to open in a new window when I just click on it? I realize the right
click is a very small inconvenience, but I'd like that option if it's
possible.

Tab shortcuts include:

Open links in a new tab in the background CTRL+click
Open links in a new tab in the foreground CTRL+SHIFT+click
Close tab (closes window if only one tab is open) CTRL+W or CTRL+F4
View list of open tabs CTRL+SHIFT+Q
Switch to next tab CTRL+TAB
Switch to previous tab CTRL+SHIFT+TAB
Switch between tabs CTRL+TAB/CTRL+SHIFT+TAB
Switch to a specific tab number CTRL+n (n can be 1-8)
Switch to the last tab CTRL+9
Close current tab CTRL+W

Press Ctrl- or Shift- when you click. Or just use Middleclick.
