Settings used in AV-Comparatives testing

Norton Security | Norton Internet Security

In all tests AV-Comparatives write: "Symantec asked us to use the program's highest heuristic setting for our  tests. Users of Norton products should bear this in mind, and may consider changing the heuristics settings on their own PC's to the highest level too. We hope that Symantec will in future set the heuristics to high by default".

You can see it for example on their Summary Report 2010: http://www.av-comparatives.org/comparativesreviews/summary-reports

What settings do I need to change to get the same protection as on the testing done by AV-Compararives?

Is it just a matter of setting the Heuristic Protection on Aggressive?

Thanks, for your reply.

I now changed both settings to aggressive.
