onChangeProblemCheckBox: function(id) {
    if ($('#CheckBox' + id).attr("checked") == true) {
        problemPicker.addToCheckProblems(id);

        var checkboxes = $('.jProblemClass:checked');

        if ((checkboxes.length > general.limit) && (general.limit != 0)) {
            alert('The limit of ' + general.limit + ' problems exceeded. Please deselect ' + (checkboxes.length - general.limit).toString() + '.');
        }
    } else {
        problemPicker.delFromCheckProblems(id);
    }
},

Bro use onclick event instead onchange.. Reason... According to the Javascript references I've read, onchange fires after the focus is lost. Unless you click somewhere else, the focus is not lost in IE. The other browsers must not be waiting for the focus to be lost before firing onchange - which suggest they are not following the spec correctly (despite it making more sense to fire at that point). How about using onclick and onkeydown/onkeyup instead (by using both onclick and onkeyup/onkeydown you cover both mouse and keyboard setting of the checkbox).

I think, the problem goes from here: $('#CheckBox' + id).attr("checked") == true. Accordingly to HTML specs, checked should be set to "checked" when this event fires. So, try using something like $('#CheckBox' + id).attr("checked") == "checked" or even $('#CheckBox' + id).attr("checked").

As a second option, i recommend you to use pure jquery to run your routine. For example, if you have <input type="checkbox" id="ac"> checkbox, you can use this jq code to handle your routines:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("input[type=checkbox]").change(function() {
        alert("Am i checked? - " + $(this).attr("checked") + "\nMy ID:" + $(this).attr("id"));
    });
});

This case is shown in this demo.
