Has anybody got this combination to work?

I've tried MPLAB 5.70.00. I upgraded my PICStart+ firmware to the latest
version (3.0.00) and tried to read the contents of an 18f452. It hangs at
address 0x7FE2 and puts up a dialog box:

   Communication error
      Cannot Receive.....

       [0000,00,00,54]

I've also occasionally see the error:

  Connect
    Unsupported programmer detected, 28

(I assume they're referring to the PICStart+ and not me.)

I figured my 4 year old PICStart+ was now too old. So I bought a new one
and $200 bucks later see the same damn error.

Do I have a couple of boat anchors now or does anyone know what may be
happening?
