Reinstalling Adobe CS5

Adobe has the most draconian copy protection and make it difficult to reinstall.  Since mine is an upgrade from 2 other versions, I have to install the first one, then the second and then CS%.  it take literally 1/2 day to do so.  I really am only interested in installing Photoshop and Acrobat but it makes me install everything.  Is there a way to just install the two and bypass all the BS that Adobe puts me through?  I am disgusted with Adobe.  I once had the software cause my whole computer to crash and literally spent 1 week with tech support and another week when I have to wipe the computer clean and reinstall EVERYTHING.
