Don't know for sure, nor know what else you have running on your 'puter but I have found the same thing while using other apps and suspect it is something about how the FA system interacts with rest of the OS, running the Enable script again has always started it up again. Try an application script that stays open and runs the Enable Folder Actions script every 2 hours or as necessary.

This makes me wonder if System Events is crashing, possibly due to a problematic folder action, and then being restarted by the enable script. I've noticed that System Events will sometimes crash silently, effectively putting folder actions out of commission.
