Thanks for your help! I followed the steps in the KB article, and
everything is back to normal.

I keep forgetting about using KB as a resource. Thanks for the
reminder!

Microsoft's Knowledge Base has an article about fixing this:

http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q188/1/34.ASP

(If you asked me, since they built in functionality to disable
suspend,
they should have built in the option to reenable it as well...)
