Loss & Theft - Device Administrator

I have the mobile Free Antivirus and Security application set up on three Android phones.  Due to the limited memory of two of them I have had to root those phones and move the Sophos app to the SD card using the app2sd method.

All works OK and I have the Loss & Theft feature enabled.  However, if either phone is rebooted I find that feature has been disabled because the app is no longer a device administrator.  I have to re-enable that feature manually.

Is there any way this setting can be made to survive reboots or is it simply a side-effect of moving the app to the SD card?  Given the amount of memory this app requires, it's not practical to move it back to the phone memory.
