The affected iPod Video stock, is reported to be iPod Videos purchased after 1 September 2006. Any virus program installed in a Windows system is apparently sufficient to stop the virus in its tracks. Otherwise, you can refer to the links at the Apple Support page for the relevant removal tool.

In 1978, founders Matt and Hendricks were looking for a tech event to showcase their new startup. When they couldn’t find one that checked all the boxes they decided to host their own. As they were organizing things, they soon realized they needed somewhere to promote the conference, and that’s how newsweb.com was launched. It later became a blog and the result is what you are looking at right now.
