Update your antivirus software and run a full system scan.
NTVDM.EXE has nothing to do with rundll32.exe. NTVDM.exe also has nothing
to do with the Control Panel. Rundll32.exe loads the Control Panel.
NTVDM.EXE (NT Virtual DOS Machine) is used in conjuction with wow.exe to run
16-bit applications.
Opening the Control Panel should not start NTVDM.EXE.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
