This is fairly simple tutorial to Jailbreak your iPod Touch 2nd Generation Version 2.2.1. However, i do not guarantee or will not be liable for any loss of data, brick of your ipod or any damages or loss and do it at your own risk. Do it only if you are sure of what you are doing. First of all. make sure you stand by your ipod touch and connect it to your pc.
#1: Connect your ipod to your pc.
#2: Bring your ipod to DFU mode by holding the off button and the back button together for 10-12 seconds. Once your ipod shows an apple symbol, continue to hold on the back button until the ipod is unresponsive.
(You will know its in dfu mode when you open up itunes and the program tells you that your ipod is in restore mode)
#3: Once your done, download this little file here:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/xyl8is#4: extract the file to your desktop it should be around 14 mb. This is the alpha release of redsn0w and it runs on the command line i know it sucks but its fairly simple!
#5: Run the program by clicking on the exe file and let the program handles. DO NOT TOUCH YOUR IPOD. Leave it there and let it run. ( Also make sure you watch over your pc and windows update doesn't restart your pc.)
#6: Depending on some individuals, the process might take about 10 mins or so, some would come to an hour. If you need more explanation at this point of time, please watch this video.
