Don't be silly, it's Windoze bloatware, that's why it's 2 Mb long.
Unless the modem really has 2 Mb of FLASH of course. Perhaps that why
they cost so much?

Diamond's attempts to translate from German to English are hilarious
enough to make up for it slightly, though.

I doubt any modem manufacturer does a V.90 upgrade which works on Linux,
although I'd love to be proved wrong.
