FWIW, the various flavors of Windows behave somewhat differently with
respect to sort order. In WinXP and earlier, you could define a default
sort order and apply it to all folders, so for example, I used to have all
folders set to sort in descending date order (newest first). Application
dialogs that called Windows Explorer data behaved the same way, and you
could re-sort those lists without affecting the WE default.
In Win7, however, there are several classes of folders, and they display
differently. For example, folders classified by Windows as containing
pictures may show thumbnails instead of details. Moreover, Win7 forgets
the sort order and reverts to its default for that class of folders
whenever you navigate to a different folder or close Windows Explorer.
Fortunately, if you navigate to a folder through the "Libraries" virtual
folder tree, Win7 does remember your display settings.
I don't have a Windows 7 computer yet but doesn't Classic Shell fix the
problem?

Sounds like it from the website, but I have no personal experience with it.
