Default Track Changes: keep author information on save

I'm using Word 2007 on XP. I use track changes constantly and need the data
(author name, time, date) associated with track changes to help me keep track
of who's doing what. When I save a document, that data disappears and is
replaced with "author" and all tracked changes become the same color. In
previous versions of Word, I knew how to fix that, but I can't find it now.
Can someone help?

Thanks!

Default Track Changes: keep author information on save

"Office" button = "Word options" = "Trust Center" = "Trust Center
Settings" button = "Privacy Options" = "Remove personal information from
file properties on save".

The option should only be available for documents created with older
versions of Word (pre 2007). However, I'm pretty sure I have seen documents
created by Word 2007 where this option was active.
