The check marks just filter the Subscriptions page. If you uncheck the boxes and click the "Filter" button it won't display the unchecked items on your current view of the Subscriptions page, but you are still subscribed to those items.

However, if you click on the item name -- whether it be a forum or a person -- next to the check box, it will take you to the item. If it's a forum, you'll go to the forum. If it's a person, you'll go to their Profile page. Either way, there should be a big red "Unsubscribe" button at the top of the page which you can click to unsubscribe from that item.

The "My Subs" tab lights up whenever a new OP is posted in a forum you're subscribed to, or whenever a person you're subscribed to posts an OP. So the only way to completely stop the "My Subs" tab from lighting up is to have no subscriptions at all.
