 var level : String;
 
 function Awake ()
 {
     PauseGame = false; 
 }
 
 function Update () 
 {
     
     if (Input.GetKeyDown ("p"))
     { 
         PauseGame = !PauseGame;
         
         if (PauseGame == true) 
         {
             Time.timeScale = 0;
             PauseGame = true;
             
             
             
         }
         if (PauseGame == false)
         {
             Time.timeScale = 1;
             PauseGame = false;
         }
     }
 }
 function OnGUI()

     if (PauseGame == true)
     {
     GUI.Window (0,PauseMenu, TheMainMenu, "Pause Menu");
     }
 }
 function TheMainMenu () 
 {
     if(GUILayout.Button("Main Menu"))
     {
          Application.LoadLevel("MainMenu");
          PauseGame = false;
      }
     if(GUILayout.Button("Restart"))

         PauseGame = false;
         Application.LoadLevel(level);
      }

You aren't actually unpausing the game on awake, you're just setting the paused flag. Set timescale in the awake functon and it should work.

 function Awake ()
  {
      PauseGame = false;
      Time.timescale = 1;
  }

Alternatively I think they could just set the timeScale to 1 in the TheMainMenu function if the player presses the main menu or restart buttons.

The reason I suggest doing it this way is so that the game doesn't end up with a time scale of 0 on the main menu.
