Oh, my updater told me nothing that there have been 4.8.1348. An hour ago I had 4.1335 and only after I have read that post I went to the download page and downloaded the new version 4.8.1351.
I downloaded the full update then disabled the self-defense module then ran the downloaded update and all is well now and enabled the self-defense module.
Mine is the beta version and you have never had to install from square one whilst on a beta build, when you did a program update it just converted to the latest program version, be that beta or regular release.
So I don’t know what is going on in this case, perhaps because it wasn’t a notified regular beta release.

I think it’s too early to post 5 BETA as an update. If you read this post, you’ll see:
[b]Limitations and bugs[/b]
This first beta still has some limitations/bugs/problems. To name the most important ones:
it currently doesn’t contain the most up-to-date defs. That is, part of the defs are somewhat outdated as we’re still making changes to the infrastructure. Hence, it is not recommended to use this beta as a tool to protect your system. Also, it is probably too early to do any detection tests at this time.
the Behavior Shield is not yet fully connected (has very limited functionality at the moment - is just a skeleton, really)
the antirootkit component is not connected
there is no licensing component in this version; i.e., no registration, no activation… however, there’s a hard-wired time bomb that will disable the program in about 2 months (there will be multiple beta refreshes before that happens, and hopefully even the final product)
the sounds are missing. We plan to have sounds in the final product (and later betas) but they’re not there now.
the design will likely change a little bit still… some of the corners will be rounded etc…
some of the Web Shield settings are missing
some of the Shield settings actually require the Shield to be restarted to become effective (Actions, Alerts, Report file, Packers, …)
the GUI sometimes doesn’t get refreshed automatically (i.e. you change something via the tray icon, and the main dialog doesn’t update itself to reflect that change)
the iNews, Community and Event log pages are just placeholders atm
the Scan Result window still needs some changes
the built-in program updater doesn’t ask for a reboot when it’s done (even if it’s necessary in order to apply the new update). Also, the update, when initiated from the main UI, may end up in an unexpected state. As an alternative, we recommend using the updater in Control Panel → Add/Remove Programs → avast! Free Antivirus → Change/Remove → Update.
I think it's too early to post 5 BETA as an update.
I used the word “[testing]” in order to remind people about it’s status. Moreover, I believe the word beta in avast 5 beta would also give them a clue. ^^
I wonder if this post would be successful. I’m still experimenting with opera mini on this phone. So far, so good. By the way, to get things back to topic. Here is an update.
