My little sister was play with it and lock it. I forgot my combination and can't unlock it.

Here is a link to Apples procedure for setting and removing the lock. Please note you will lose all your data. Good luck.

rj713 is of course absolutely right. There is a also another way to reset it without losing the data from your ipod :
first plug in the ipod, go to my computer, click on the ipod drive. Go to tools > folder options then click view. Click show hidden files,
Go to ipod_control, then go to device. There should be a file named "_locked" delete that. Now unplug the ipod and you should be ready to go
Good luck

Go to Ipod folder in computer make sure hidden files are displayed
go to
-ipod_control
--Device
---_locked
don't delete it, just change it to un_locked
worked for me many times, just don't know how to full remove code or change it without restoring ipod

Telling her how to show the hidden files would greatly improve your answer.
This actually worked for me! In explorer go "View > Hidden Items" and uncheck it. Then go to the folder "IPod_Control" and do as described above.
