ESET has released Beta versions of NOD32 Antivirus 5 and Smart Security 5 to public.
These new versions introduce a batch of new technological improvements coupled with advanced features to protect your PC from all types of threats, including viruses, worms, rootkits and spyware.
ESET Smart Security 5 lets you start working on your computer immediately after booting, without compromising your security. This new version of ESET Smart Security detects all types of Internet-borne threats. These including social media scams and social engineering, to which your family members and kids are exposed daily.
The UI has also undergone a number of usability and design modifications with the aim to enhance the overall user experience. The most frequently used actions are available from all screens. "Tools" pane now provides a dashboard-like look that is now even more intuitive and transparent.

Your links take you to downloads for version 4.
No reference to version 5 or betas anywhere on there that I can find.

^^ Links are working fine here.

Seems to be this isn't for everybody, in my case they redirect v4 Releases also.
Addresses don't suffer any change, they just don't work in order to get v5 Releases (at least here).
Hmm
Links aren't taking me anywhere either.

Far better URL with proper choices of NOD or ESS in 32bit or 64bit if English is your choice(I am a customer)!

Tested with IE9, FF4 and latest Chrome - none of them show anything but version 4.
I am a 30-year IT professional, I am not doing it wrong, I can assure you.
Possibly limited by geographical location? If so, that is important to note.
How about a screenshot of downloads in your browser showing address?

Also, for those who want to know:
Q6: How long will the beta test program run for?
A6: The beta test cycle for ESET NOD32 Antivirus 5 will run until the program reaches the necessary levels of quality, performance and reliability.
Q7: What happens at the end of the beta test program?
A7: At the end of the beta test program, a message will be sent to testers who provided a contact email address letting them know the exact date the beta test version ceases to work. If you did not provide contact information, you will only receive notifications through through the program when the beta test version's license has expired.
