I used to have this problem with the JDM programmer. If a PIC had been previously programmed to use the internal oscillator with MCLR off, it would start to run its program as soon as VDD is applied, it never gets a chance to be reprogrammed and won't be reset via the MCLR pin. VDD needs to be delayed until after VPP is applied.

http://forum.velleman.eu/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1820&p=6808 seems to discuss the issue.

You may be able to add a delay for VDD using an opto-isolator or something. I am sure the others will suggest a better way.
