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
How to uninstall our software using aswClear.exe:

.......and everything works....i hope...
