12F programming woes

[Bruce]

Are you using a ZIF socket or programming in-circuit?

If you're using the 8-40 ZIF socket, make sure you have the programmer plugged in
to the 8-20-pin header on the adapter, and pin #1 on the 8-pin 12F PIC by where it's
marked Pin 1: 8-20 on the adapter.

I am programming in circuit. There is no other load on any pins.
