We just changed from outlook 2003 to 2007 and now if a non recurring event is
more than seven day's old and I've dismissed it, it is deleted. I can even
create an old one and wait about 30 seconds and watch it disappear to my
waste basket. How do I stop this?

Do you have autoarchive enabled on the Calendar folder?
 
Yes, here are the settings (via, right click on calendar, properties,
AutoArchive tab)
Button on -- Archive items in this folder using the default setting
Hit Default ARchive Settings... button and see

Check on -- Run every 14 days
Check on -- Prompt before Autoarchive runs
Check off -- Delete expired items (e-mail folders only)
Check on - Archive or delete old items
Check on - Show archive folder in folder list
Clean out items older than 6 months
Button on -- move old items to: with the path to my archive.pst file

I just added some more events to last Tuesday (15 Jul) and without any
prompting they were deleted and didn't show up in my archive.pst file.
 
How would I check this? This is quite possible we have a 90M limit on our
system and people tend to forget their calendar apointments can have
attachments. Management might be "helping" us.

You'll need to ask the admin.
