Disabling JComboBox and retaining original item list

My action listener on a JComboBox invokes a thread. I would like the component to be disabled until the thread completes.

I have tried calling seEnabled(false) when the thread start and setEnabled(true) when it completes. Unfortunately setEnabled(false) clears the combo box list as well.

Is there a way of disabling the component but retain the original list?

setEnabled(false) definitely doesn't clear the contents of the combo box. Something else must be going on.

Posting your code might help.
