About MPLAB
About MPLAB 'd like to post my experience regarding the use of ICD3.
If you are using the above as a programmer then the best MPLAB version so far is the 8.15a and you can download it from Melabs site.
Newer version have serious timout problems and lose connection with the ICD3 producing the ICD3Err0033 error. I was almost ready to return it form repair until I download the old version and have no problem at all. And the assembler is very-very fast also!
Too pity that many people have the same problem (according to Microchips forums) but the company does not seem to do anything about it.

P.S. When installing a newer version you have manually to remove the older one. Look at Add/Remove programs fro XP or Program and Features for Vista.
