I shouldn't think there's much risk involved. The files and their formats on the iPod will generally be alien to your antivirus software (I'm presuming MS/Win based), so it should only be familiar malware that gets blitzed. Heuristics might provide a false positive somewhere, but any action could be refused at your discretion, I'm sure. If you're worried about it, make sure to do backup of the iPod (through iTunes, if the option is available for your iPod model) before running a comprehensive scan. I would strongly recommend giving the office machine a good once-over. Whatever you do, if this PC is the culprit, you'll just end up repeatedly re-infecting otherwise.
