Yeah, it's related to doubleclicking. Giving the checkbox focus and rapidly pressing the space bar works just fine.

Isn't this just IE trying to capture "accidental" double-clicks? Microsoft has used this throughout their OS for a while now. If you've ever watched an inexperienced person browse the web, they tend to double-click everything, including links.
