One way to approach this might be to a run function (perhaps initiated by a
button click event)  that sets a boolean var: bTabEnabled = false; then set
a var (statTabIndex) equal to the tabNav.selectedIndex.

The tabNavigator has a change event that will fire when the user interacts
with a tab.  If the boolean is false, the tabNav.selectedIndex will be set
to 'statTabIndex'.

<mx:Script>

      var bTabEnabled = true;
      var statTabIndex;

      function doChange(e)
      {
            if(!bTabEnabled)
            {
                  tbNav1.selectedIndex = statTabIndex;
            }
      }

      function setTabNavEnabled()
      {
            if(bTabEnabled)
            {
                  bTabEnabled = false;
                  btn1.label = "enable tab change";
                  statTabIndex = tbNav1.selectedIndex;
            }
            else
            {
                  bTabEnabled = true;
                  btn1.label = "disable tab change";
            }
      }
</mx:Script>


<mx:TabNavigator id="tbNav1" change="doChange(event)">
      <mx:HBox height="400" width="400" backgroundColor="#003399"/>
      <mx:HBox height="400" width="400" backgroundColor="#00CC99"/>
      <mx:HBox height="400" width="400" backgroundColor="#993300"/>
      <mx:HBox height="400" width="400" backgroundColor="#FF6666"/>
      <mx:HBox height="400" width="400" backgroundColor="#00CC66"/>
</mx:TabNavigator>


<mx:Button id="btn1" label="disable tab change"
click="setTabNavEnabled()"/>
