The easiest way would be to directly edit app/design/adminhtml/default/default/template/catalog/product/edit.phtml and add following snippet somewhere within <script type="text/javascript"> and </script>.

if(document.getElementById('status').value == ""){
    document.getElementById('status').options[1].selected = true;
}

The problem in this solution is that this file potentially can be overwritten during next Magento upgrade, so you'll have to repeat this process.

Better solution would be to make adminhtml theme, for example in app/design/adminhtml/default/custom, and there you can put modified template into app/design/adminhtml/default/custom/template/catalog/product/edit.phtml
