OK,
this is what I get when I try to put *JUST THE HEADER* in to debug mode:

Connecting to MPLAB ICD 2
...Connected
Setting Vdd source to MPLAB ICD 2
Target Device PIC12F675 found, revision = Rev 0x2
...Reading ICD Product ID

...Passed

...Validating configuration fields

...Programming GOTO 0x00 command
ICD0083: Debug:  Unable to enter debug mode.  Please double click this
message for more information.

Resetting Target
Entering Debug Mode
...Programming GOTO 0x00 command
Resetting Target
MPLAB ICD 2 Ready
MPLAB ICD 2 Ready
Entering Debug Mode
...Programming GOTO 0x00 command

This is just the header, no target circuit attached.  Ideas?  I'm fresh
out.  ICD seems to be flaky as all heck.  Sometimes it sees the header,
sometimes it doesn't.  WHY?

I would really love to be able to use this darn thing, so if anyone has had
similar troubles with a header and knows ANYTHING, please share.  Feel free
to contact me off list if you're too shy to reply to the list itself.
