How to install multiple Qt 5.2 versions on Windows using offline installers

Hello, With previous Qt versions I have used the online installer to install the 32- and 64-bit MSVC and 32-bit MinGW Qt versions. This was pretty elegant as it created one root folder, one Qt Creator, and separate sub-folders for the three different versions. Unfortunately, because I am based in Australia the Qt 5.2 online installer is next to useless, even after switching to a so-called “more reliable” mirror. It took 7 hours to download the offline installers, but I have now successfully installed the 64-bit MSVC2012 version of Qt. How do I install the other two versions? I thought I could simply install them into different root folder locations, but there is no way to disable the installation of Qt Creator. I sure as heck don’t need three separate copies of it. Then I went hunting for a download location for the Qt 5.2 libraries, but I couldn’t find a way to do this either. I would appreciate some suggestions, or even to be pointed to a solution identified by someone else (I couldn’t find one). Thanks.
