It's not a file; its a USRPRF. One per user. All you can see is what DSPUSRPRF and CHGUSRPRF show. And as Buck said, the password is encrypted with a one-way hash: validation is accomplished by checking that the password entered produces the same hash; short of a brute-force attack with a large amount of processing power, you can't get to the password from the hash, even if you were to hack your way to the hash itself.
