AVR ISP Programmer needed

mega-isp

I have a Arduino clone from Modern Devices that hadn't been used in a while, and when I tried to use it, it wouldn't sync up with the Software on the PC - Either I blew it away somehow or it lost its little programmable mind - so I was looking around for a way to re-flash its brain and try again (don't you wish that you could get your brain freshened up every once in a while?)

I was futzing around looking at things other people found interesting in Google reader, which took me to this forum message which linked me to This Project @ Google.code that let you program a AVR chip with an Arduino. I have an extra shield from Adafruit - so i thought I'd try it out.
