I think I've worked it out! Your rule is:
 
(IsProject) AND (ProjectStatus=NotStarted) OR (ProjectStatus=Suspended)
 
(I'm ignoring the extra brackets which you've got round the whole 
expression, because they don't sub-group any of the terms in it)
 
The order of evaluation of logic terms is: NOT before AND before OR. So, 
that expression is evaluated as:

   1. (IsProject) AND (ProjectStatus=NotStarted) OR 
   2. (ProjectStatus=Suspended)

The first term only checks "ProjectStatus=NotStarted" for the projects 
(IsProject), but not for items which aren't projects (ie all the child 
tasks).
The second term with check "ProjectStatus=Suspended" whether the item is a 
project or a child task - So your formatting for suspended projects is 
applied to both the project and all it's tasks.
 
So, if you want the faded font to apply to all the child tasks of a 
NotStarted project, you need to delete or uncheck the term "IsProject".
You could also create it as a new rule with just two terms, no sub-rules:

ProjectStatus =NotStarted OR
ProjectStatus=Suspended

 
Please let us know if that makes sense and if it fixes the problem for you.
