This is an old thread, but using .NET 4.5 (not sure if previous versions work), you can use LINQ to do this:

IEnumerable<ListItem> selectedItems = myCheckboxList.Items.Cast<ListItem>().Where(x => x.Selected);

You must iterate through the Items.

Refer to CheckBoxList Class.

To determine which items are checked, iterate through the collection and test the Selected property of each item in the list.

foreach (ListItem item in myCheckboxList.Items)
{
  if (item.Selected)
  {
    //Your code goes here
  }
}

Propably the simplest approach is this:

foreach (ListItem item in myCheckboxList.Items)
{
  if (item.Selected)
  {
    // do something with this item
  }
}

Use the following:

for (int i=0; i<checkboxlist1.Items.Count; i++)
{
    if (checkboxlist1.Items[i].Selected)
    {
        Message.Text += checkboxlist1.Items[i].Text + "<br />";
    }
}

Refer to CheckBoxList Class.

try listitem.Selected property as i did below 

protected void CheckBoxList1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Label1.Text = string.Empty;

    foreach (ListItem listitem in CheckBoxList1.Items)
    {
        if (listitem.Selected)
            Label1.Text += listitem.Text + "<br />";
    }
}
