Pardon the intrusion, but it may be worth noting that an unclickable checkbox is a violation of Apple's Human Interface Guidelines and of general UI design rules about user expectations. I'd respectfully suggest some other way of indicating the user's connected state than a checkbox he can't click on or change. I guarantee you'll have frustrated and confused users.Turn off the autoHilite of the checkbox, and leave the script of the checkbox empty. Now it won't be hilited unless you set its hilite from a script.
A text label whose contents changes from CONNECTED to NOT CONNECTED would be as easy to design and code and be much more meaningful in the bargain.
Just MHO.
