I have the same problem on Adobe Reader 7.0.9. I open the Reader (no document loaded) Edit> Preferences> Page Display> set Default Zoom=100% and click OK. If I view Preferences again (without closing) it's still 100%. Close Adobe Reader, re-open and Default Zoom is back to "Automatic". Very annoying!

Tested several other preferences and some of them save and some don't, e.g. in Preferences >Full Screen I tick "Advance every 5 seconds" and tick "Show Navigation Bar". Save, close Adobe, re-open and "Advance every 5 seconds" is not ticked while "Show Navigation Bar" is!

This is independent of any document settings as I never opened a single doc in the whole process.

Will Adobe acknowledge there is a problem here? Do they bother to read the forums? Looks like this problem has not been fixed in version 8. Very poor!
