Security behaviour when adding the extended reader options

Hi,

I'm having an issue when I secure a pdf file with interactivity. I don't know if it's regular behaviour or if it's a bug.

What do I do?
I have an interactive PDFIn this PDf there are show/hide fields, multimedia, flash ... . When I secure the file with a password (only commenting in Reader allowed) , and I extend the commenting features in Reader, I encouter a problem.

When I click a show hide button (the document changes) and I save my comments I've made in the document. The next time I open it, Reader gives a popup with an alert stating that the document has been changed and the document can not be saved again (which I obviously want).

Can someone help me solve this tricky one?
