I am suffering huge problems with my iPod when I plug it into my computer. It rarely updates from iTunes, instead it crashes or Autoplay thing comes up with a little flashlight and it doesn't progress past this, or it just ignores it totally.
Anyone else suffered this and know why?

Nope, never had troubles with it.
Did you re-install all the software on PC/iPod?

I've had similar trouble.
I plug it in and it just clicks at me. Also after this it started skipping tracks or playing a bit then stopping. Fucking annoying. I just kept trying to connect it. Eventually it worked and I formatted it and haven't used iTunes since. It seems to be OK. Unless it gets hot.

i haven't even read the initial post to be honest, but judging on 'or it just ignores it totally' part, it sounds like something serious so i think it's still out of order yeah.
and im being serious for my whole life already..i think it's time i change that.

Thats the new feature they added to remind people of the ipod shuffle that apple just put out, that randomly browses your computer and places all your mp3's in various mystery folders.

See, the fun part is going around and spending weeks trying to reorganize everything
Aparently it has three settings, '52 pickup', 'hemorage' and 'genocide', and can connect to your computer wirelessly through blue tooth.
Its also been announce that it has an added function that rearranges all the names and phone numbers on every nearby cellphone on the 23rd day of every month.

it may mess everything up, and not interface with your ipod at all, and rename everything periodically, but at least it super stable.

I can't fault you on that. It's stable enough sitting on the CD where it's currently never leaving because I'm not installing it again.
VIVA LA REVOLUTION!
I've no doubt it works fine on a Mac.

unfortunately, thats not my problem. i was clearing out my library, so i told it to remove all my songs, and i specifically remember clicking 'no' when it asked if it should really delete them. of course, it decided to anyway and
BAM!
theres an extra 25 gb of free space on my harddrive. im still trying to recover them, but its not looking so hot. T__T
