window object does not provide any event like before-open (or other open-related events), so you can not intercept it...
The only known - to me - solution is to override window.open function...

JavaScript

window.open_original = window.open;

window.open = function(url, name, features, replace) {
    alert("!");

    window.open_original(url, name, features, replace);
}

window.open("http://www.codeproject.com");
