    Open the updater, connect your iPod to your computer, and click 'restore'.

    No longer than five minutes.

    Yes, it's a perfectly safe & reliable operation.

    An administrator account in windows? Well, I have successfully restored an iPod on one of my limited accounts, so as long as you are allowed to install small programs, then you should have no problems.
