Here is another bug in Windows Vista which has not been fixed in SP1. This bug is found in "Welcome Center" which is shown at Windows startup by default. You can also open it from Control Panel or "All Programs" menu.
Following are the steps to recreate the bug:
1. Open Welcome Center and its window will look like as following:
2. As you can see the default "View" is set to "Tiles" and icons are grouped by "Category". Now try to change the view settings. Right-click in empty area and change the view to "Medium Icons", "List", "Details" or any other you want. Also change the "Group By" setting to "Name", "Description" or "(None)". You can also collapse the complete group using arrow.
3. When you have done, close Welcome Center and re-open it and you'll be surprised that all your customized settings will be vanished and it'll use the default settings:
4. So its definitely a bug. It should remember users settings otherwise what's the benefit of these options?

i also had a problem with the Welcome Center, i set in the startup for the Welcome Center to not appear when i start windows so it won't start on my account but it still starts up on other accounts although the startup has been set to not start. But it's only a minor problem and it doesn't really bother me.
