Note that quite often, the initial portion of the virus fits within 1 TCP packet. That would be about 1.2 KByte max, for most connections. Thus, the infector is about 10,000 bits in length. Even the worst modems usually connect at 28,800 bits per second. Infection time is thus less than half a second. Once the virus has run, it shouldn't have too much trouble getting the rest of its code, if present, in as well.
