Ask everybody to configure the browser is not the best solution, perhaps.
You could put all the links to external pages in the form:
/gourl.php?url=the_external_url
And, in the script gourl.php, put the referral information that you want.
I've not tested this, but I think that it could run fine.
Hope this helps,
Carlos.
