o.k I will tell you what I did exactly:
1. copied the = script to my Windows machine desktop (didn't install it just activated = it)
2. in AE I selected file->script->run script file = and opened the script
3. I got a script window = and selected 2 comps to modify 
had same like you an NTSC = comp so I selected 480p setting like you needed and entered 1.0 aspect = ratio
4. thats it

I copied the script, pasted it into = TextEdit (on a Mac here), saved it to CS 6 scripts folder with a JSX = extension. Opened AE, selected a comp, and select the script.

how about file->scripts->Scale = Composition? 
and after that you could set each comp to square = pixels.
