Question about Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
I did this with my XP. And now it's working just fine and the ntv.vbs is gone. DISCLAIMER: I've tried many other ways that's been posted in the internet. The other 2 ways that seemed to be the best solutions are:
a.) switch to Linux
b.) reformat the PC
For this other thing that I did, you might as well prepare a back-up for all your files before you do this since I've only done it once. I can't assure you that everything will work the same way as my XP did.
Click Start, click Run
Key in regedit
Click OK
The dialogue box of the Registry will appear
Click View
Click Find in the drop down menu
Find dialogue box will open. Look for autorun.inf
Locate the files containing the autorun.inf in the registry. Delete.
Go back to View. Find next. Continue until you've deleted all autorun.inf's
Follow the same for locating all wscript.exe
Follow the same for locating all jargon.vbs
When all these autoruns, wscripts and jargons are gone, look for the ntv.vbs file in My Computer. Delete it and it shouldn't reappear anymore.
