Sinoteq,
thanks for the links. I'm thinking I should stop being so cheap and just get a programmer from microchip now. This JDM just doesn't seem to do everything I want it to do.

Skimask,
I have erased the chip using WinPic (or at least winpic thinks it's erasing the chip, I get no errors) but when i try to reprogram I get verify errors.

I'm going to go back to tinkering with my 16F627A's and RF for a while until I get another 16F88. I'll stay away from using INTRC_OSC and MCLR_OFF together for now.

At least I know what happened to my 12F675's now, too bad I bent the pins and tossed them.

You guys are great, thanks again.
