TweakUI: persist settings across VPN?

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



I installed TweakUI on my work laptop (XP Pro) just to change one setting:
General > Focus > Prevent applications from stealing focus.

Unfortunately, every time I log on, the setting is lost. Newly created
windows are still capable of interfering with what I am doing, and TweakUI
shows the box unchecked again.

I log on to a VPN, not a local user account, so perhaps my settings are
being downloaded from the network every time? (I don't know how this works
and could be wrong about it, but on my non-work computer, with a normal user
account, TweakUI settings don't get lost.)

What can I do to make this setting persist?

Eq.
