>From MSKB article Q263968:
SYMPTOMS
If SQL Server Authentication, also known as Standard Security, is used
for installing SQL Server 7.0 Service Packs, the system administrator
(sa) password is saved in clear text format in the Sqlsp.log file in
the Temp directory. On computers running Microsoft Windows 2000, the
Temp directory is set under Environment Variables on the Advanced tab
of the System Control Panel.
WORKAROUND
If you have already installed SQL Server 7.0 Service Pack 1 or Service
Pack 2 and specified SQL Server Authentication in Mixed Mode security,
search for and delete all copies of the Sqlsp.log file. To ensure that
the file cannot be recovered, you may want to delete it permanently by
holding down the SHIFT key and dragging the file to the Recycle Bin.
