If I may add, ICD3 is a crap...

It is supposed to be a professional programmer-debugger but ... un-functional for me. Also unable to power the very light (in aspect of current consumption) circuits and external power is always a must.

PicKit3 is great and when possible I use the Stand alone software for this.

Even better a third programmer, (in my case Elnec which is far away...).
