I've got no problems with it either, at least since the latest version
which seemed to fix all the serial comms problem to my ProMate.  I only
use it for programming, though, since the simulator doesn't suit my
weird ...I mean, state-of-the-art... design.

I edit in UltraEdit, compile with MPC out of UltraEdit, and call up
MPLAB from UltraEdit.
