I built an ezpic programmer.

i'm trying to program the classic 16f84a
i'm using ic-prog since i found a pdf from sunrom technologies with some guides when using ic-prog.
i keep getting the common error when veryfing the code (0000h), hence it's not actually programming. the pic is still blank, when i read it, all i get is 3FFF (blank as you know)
the code protection is disabled. JDM programmer is selected, com 1 is selected as well. i've checked, the serial port is working properly, so is my serial cable.
i've also tried using winpic, yet the same mistake. oh, and yes, the pic was placed correctly.
i was wondering about not enough voltage. so in ic-prog, i used the hardware check, by enabling MCLR, i measure the voltage between pin 1 MCLR and ground, what I got was around 13v. And I believe thats more than enough.
im seriously thinking about switching to a different programmer, or getting a usb programmer like the pickit clone 2.
this is driving me crazy, i'm out of ideas, how about you? help me out! i'm way behind on my project because of this.
