Maplin sell what I think is the one, under the name "FCC68 modular socke=
t", type 6C6P (6 contacts in a 6
position shell).  Their part number is JW45Y, and they're GB=A30.69 each=
.  The annoying thing that I find about
these is that the PCB pins are offset (look under your PICDEM2 to see wh=
at I mean) so they won't fit in
Veroboard, or any other 0.1" pitch board layout.

Go to http://www.maplin.co.uk if you don't know where to find their near=
est shop.  Good luck!

Wouter, I note on the last page of this document you describe the connec=
tor as "RJ45" - that would be an 8-pin
connector, whereas the one the OP was asking about is 6-pin, which I thi=
nk is called "RJ11".
