Illustrator CS3 - Layers off but still showing?

Layer is turned off in Illustrator-- it still shows up in the finder preview. Since we are using these as PDF compatible for our workflow, it's messing some stuff up.

Anyone know what I can do to fix this???

What?

I'm not importing a PDF.

I am saving a CS3 Illustrator file. I am hiding a layer. When I hide it, it still shows up in my PDF preview (like, when you see the preview from within finder) which means it also shows up in other outside programs that I'm using (my RIP). I don't want that layer there, but it's crucial for it to be in the file, so I don't want to completely delete it.

The fix I'm using for now is to save down to CS2.
