Open the window in question in the Finder.  (What is the name of that 
window by the way?)

Select View > Show View Options.  (Or the short cut: alt-j) When the 
view options window is open, the last think in this window is a button 
named "View as Defaults".  Until you modify something in the window, it 
is greyed out.

I have found the same thing but only with the Applications windows and 
few other windows that I think the system doesn't want jacked with: 
Public and Desktop to if memory serves. No amount of changes will have 
them opening up in my preferred way after a reboot.  Many others do, 
though.
