Currently, avast 5 is only available in English and French language right now but the other languages will be released soon.

When available, you only need to download the full avast 5 installation file, save it to your hard disk and then run it. This preserves the 4.8 home registration information and will also remove 4.8 and install 5.0.

See avast! 5.0 FAQ - General - http://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=455&nav=0 (http://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=455&nav=0)
