First, be sure to use the most recent version of Adobe Reader (v7.09 as of this writing).

If properly created, an enabled form will have all rights preserved in Adobe Reader 7. You may need to go back to the original form, save a copy of the form from Acrobat, open the copy and enable it. Save as a new name and try it in Adobe Reader. Make sure to not try to do any editing after you enable the form.
