At first, I was a bit freaked out, because they do do alot of downloading. I tried forewarding the email to me, but it was not delevired. When I got back there today, I had a better look at it.
It turns out to be a virus.

The message contains a zip file named user-EA49943X-activities.zip and after extracting the file is user-EA49943X-activities.exe. File names can be different with each email.

The malware registers a Winlogon notification package so that the installed module is loaded into the address space of winlogon.exe. The files cabpck.dll (known as theMal/TinyDL-T by Sophos), k86.bin and krnlcab.sys (known as the Backdoor:Win32/Haxdoor by Microsoft)) are created in the %System% folder.

A directory %Temp%\msi_setup will be created and a new connection with some host is made: http://****-****.biz/jerken/data.php?trac kid=706172616D3D6 or http://*****.net/22/data.php?trackid=7061 72616D3D636D64266C616E6

so when you get an email with this in the subject: Your internet access is going to get suspended, Delete it.
Don’t take any chances.

If its too late, check this out, and maybe it will help you solve the problem: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=38620.0
