Thanks Paul

yes......   if you have a valid license for avast 4.8 pro you should get avast 5 pro for free

Maybe you should try a clean install, uninstall 4.8 > restart > run the removal tool found here as nr.1 http://uninstallers.blogspot.com/ > restart > install V5 > enter license key  from 4.8

hi pondus

no luck this time
download was veryvery slow and when it finally finished my license key was rejected .So back to square one again I guess.

Thanks for your help
