You could try Foxit reader (www.foxitsoftware.com), about 2mb, doesn't need
installing (runs stand alone) and its free. Only drawback is it is still in
it's infantcy & is developing at a very fast pace, eg: frequent updates but at
2mb that's not a problem.

...

Just checked, and my version 7 folder is over 61 Mby. 61 Mby is chump
change
in an era of multi-hundred-GBy disks. If you're on dialup and the download
time
is a problem, start it when you go to bed.

This is the problem with dial up. I know here in the UK when i was on dial
up the ISP disconnected me every 2 hours, so there was no way i could get
large downloads down in the conventional way. I found a way around it though
by using a download manager. However, after a while downloads were taking so
long that, out of sheer frustration, i subscribed to broadband.
