I guess you have set the CommandName for 'View profile' button as 'Select'. Thats why its selecting the CheckBox in GridClientSelectColumn. Since you are using the button for viewing profile, you can change the CommandName to any custom CommandName.
Hope this information helps,

i'm very sorry its not the clientselectcolumn i'm using a gridtemplatecolumn and here's my source code;
<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TemplateEditColumn" >
<ItemTemplate >
<asp:HyperLink ID="ViewLink" runat="server" Text="View Profile" ForeColor ="Blue" Font-Bold ="true" Font-Size ="Small" >
</asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
is their a way to prevent ticking those checkbox using this template? hoping for you response.

I am not sure about the scenario/requirement that you are trying, because I got confused about your setup. At this point, pasting the complete code or briefly explaining the requirement would be helpful in further help.

I cannot replicate the issue that you explained even I tried the same code as yours. When clicking the HyperLink, it is not cheking the checkbox in the row, for me. I suspect that you are having some client side method attached to HyperLink which selects the row.
Can someone from Telerik give us a hand in this?
Thanks,
Princy.
