Avast! meets your requirements, other than size at 21MB for the installer, and it is also rated in the top tier of A/V software for detection rates. There is nothing smaller AFAIK that will provide the options you want and which is also in the top tier of A/V software.

If your dialup is unlimited (meaning no extra charges despite the extra MB used or extra time used), you can use a download manager to speed up the download.
Download Express is a good and free product for it.
