Completely disable movie clip button in AS3?

I have an swf with several movie clips set up to work as navigation buttons (using _up, _over and _down frame labels). The same navigation swf is used by several different HTML pages and navigates between them.

I want to pass the swf a variable with FlashVars in the object/embed script that will disable the movie clip button for the page the user is currently on.

In AS3 myClip.enabled = false; only removes the rollover behavior of the clip, but does not prevent the clip from receiving mouse events.

How can I disable the clip completely so that it does not respond to events?

mc.mouseEnabled = false;

Wonderful! (For some reason, I was expecting it to be more complicated.) Thanks!
