This sentence uses "to contract" correctly. To "contract (a disease)" is to be infected with a disease, and become ill. In his email, Bob uses this construction to talk about "contracting a computer virus". Here's another example: "Thousands of people contract HIV every day".
This is a good choice. Something which is "contracted" has been "made shorter or smaller", or "reduced". We often talk about the "contracted form" of certain words. For example: "Roberto thinks that "weren't" is the contracted form of 'I am". He's not very good at English!
This sentence is correct. Here, "contract" is used as a noun to describe an official document representing an agreement between two or more parties. Another example: "I don't have a contract for my job because I'm an illegal immigrant and I work on the black market". To "draw up" a contract is to "write" it.
This is not a good choice. It would make more sense to say "you look very tense or stressed today".

1 rub: To rub is to apply pressure or friction, either back and forth or in a circular motion. Example: I RUBBED my hands together to try and get warm. In the conversation, Filipe says, "I'm going to rub your shoulders". This means he will massage Bruno's shoulders applying pressure with his hands. "To rub" is a regular verb: rub/rubbed/rubbed.
2 tense: If your muscles are "tense" they are under tension. In the conversation, Filipe massages Bruno's shoulders and notes that they are "a bit tense". "Tense" muscles is a common symptom of people being stressed (due to too much work, for example). Another meaning of "tense", not necessarily related to the tension in muscles, is to be "nervous". Example: I was very TENSE before my driving exam.
