Please use the commandline property LEAVE_PDFOWNERSHIP=”YES”  to retain the PDF ownership with the existing application.

i.e. the syntax should look like this,

msiexec /i AcroPro.msi LEAVE_PDFOWNERSHIP=”YES” /qb

Hope, it helps.

BTW, all the properties are listed in the admin guide here: http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobatitinfo.

You'll find preference (registry/plist) config info on the same page.
