Explorer won't retain "Details" view - XPPro

I've just re-installed XPPro (SP3), and Explorer won't retain my view settings after I've applied them to all folders. I want the Details view, but it keeps reverting back to Icons.

Notes:

"Remember each folder's view settings" is checked.

I have the most recent Windows updates installed.

I've Googled extensively, and know this is a common problem. I've tried using TweakUI, the Kelly's-Korner tweak, and changing the bagMRU size values.

I'm finding this quite maddening. All help will be greatly appreciated.
