System Restore doesn't restore everything...and files you create (like your contacts) are among those things it doesn't restore. System Restore, as its name implies, only restores system files.

Did you install or uninstall anything (software or hardware) prior to the disappearing contacts?

Joining a workgroup or domain will also cause the "appearance" of deleted data becasue a new profile is created. Have you done anything like that?
