Windows XP - My Documents annoyance

For whatever reason the view of My Documents (and I assume my other folders) likes to sort itself.

Instead of the default - which I like - of sorting from last saved, it saves in alphabetical order...

and the weird thing is that I didn't change it or anything. Is there any reason why it does this,

and if so is there anyway I can restore the defaults, which I like?

To make this stick, you need to go into Windows Explorer and sort everything exactly how you would like it. Then: Tools > Folder Options > View > Apply to All Folders. Then immediately close Windows Explorer. (Maybe even restart the computer just to be thorough). Then go back into Windows Explorer and it should be sorted the same.
