you'll see the link code.. <a href="http://whatever.com"></a> , add the target after the url - <a href="http://whatever.com" target="_blank">

target is a deprecated attribute UNLESS you are using frames AND the T&C of most advertisers expressly forbid opening the ads in new windows.

Opening new windows is also really bad for accessibility too, it's best you don't do it at all.

Ad Behavior

AdSense code may not be altered, nor may the standard behavior, targeting or delivery of ads be manipulated in any way that is not explicitly permitted by Google. For instance, clicking Google ads may not result in a new browser window being launched.
