As I understand everything works just fine - HostMonitor sets "Bad" status for dependent test items because you marked "Synchronize status & alerts" option.
Quote from the manual
Synchronize status & alerts
This option is applicable only if "Synchronize counters" is also selected. When the option is turned on, besides synchronizing counters, the dependent test receives the status of the master test, which in turn will start action dispatching based on the status propagated from the master test.

Example: On your corporate network you have 10 web servers and 1 router that is critical to the entire network. A router Ping test is set up to page the administrator if the router does not respond. So when the router goes down, and the "Synchronize status&alerts" option is turned off, HostMonitor sends a message to the administrator's pager and suspends all dependent tests. If "Synchronize status&alerts" is on, in addition to the router problem notification, actions defined on the dependent tests will be fired off as well.
