Are you using ISE 10.1?

EDIT: I am wondering if you have one of the newer ones Stephen mentioned earlier, that seems to only work with a later version of ISE?

My new one doesnt work in impact. I have had to use xc3sprog with it. Didnt want to spend time figuring anything else out.

I installed 14.7 on an old Win XP machine and it works. I think you can get licence for free from the website. I think that's how I got mine.

Select the option to disconnect cable from the drop down menu and the programming functions will reappear.

This is just a side effect of using a knock off cable.
