The front page of download.com also has v5 listed, saying it "debuts today"

See http://download.cnet.com/8301-2007_4...in;contentBody

UPDATE: lordraiden is right! It has been officially released, as if you download it from download.com, it comes up as v5.

Apparently they are releasing today http://blog.avast.com/?board=15.0

But the beta forum is still very active, so I guess they are still working on the Internet Security.
