Here's how to install a nifty little program called Navigation Popups to enhance your Wikipedia account.


 * Step 1:    You must have a user account in order to install and use the Navigation popups feature. If you do not have an account you will need to create one and log in.


 * Step 2:    Go to Special:Preferences un and check the box under the section Browsing: "Navigation popups, article previews and editing functions popup when hovering over links"


 * Step 3:    hit save.


 * Step 4:    Clear your browser's cache (hold down the SHIFT key while reloading/refreshing page).
