Linking Application to static version of QT

I'm new to QT and I've been trying to compile a static build of QT of DAYS (literally) I'm pretty much out of Ideas and the QT documentation is probably the least helpful I have ever read. It doesn't work out of the box thats the problem. It needs to be tweaked a considerable amount before you can compile it as static. Finally the other night I managed to compile it statically and then followed the instructions to deploy it. I then copied the executable to another machine where it promptly complained for the lack of dll msvcp100. WTF! I thought that the static build was dependency free! Can you guys give me a definitive answer that can solve my problems?

That's the Visual C++ runtime library, not QT. You need to install http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=a7b7a05e-6de6-4d3a-a423-37bf0912db84&displaylang=en
