Some stores give you the MOBI without adding your PID. The first time you open it, Windows MobiPocket Reader redownloads the "correct" version. This is only supposed to happen once. Are you opening the ebook by selecting the MOBI file in its opriginal directory, and if so is it in a directory other than the MobiPocket ebook directory (by default this is My Documents\My eBooks)? The copy in the MobiPocket ebook directory should contain your PIDs.
When the MOBI servers went down a couple of years ago there were a few reports of MOBI ebooks that did not work because they always "called home". These seem to have been bugs, I don't think MOBI ebooks are typically configured this way.
