Default Track changes authors/reviewers in Word 2003

At this smallish law firm, our attorneys love using track changes, especially
with the "By Reviewer" feature to distinguish their changes by color.

We are using Office 2003.

The setting in ~Tools | Options | Security | Remove personal information
from file properties on save~ has gotten in our way. Although I have it
deselected in our normal template, when they send their documents out to a
client and the client has that option turned on, it wipes away the reviewer
distinction and all changes become labeled as "Author," and the reviewer
history is lost.

This issue first cropped up with a document authored by a client, so I need
to change it both ways.

Is there any way to override this setting?

Thanks so much for your help, past and present...
