FOr questions please use povray.general (or .newusers).

As for sparks, You can use 
1) small bat very bright emission media
2) small spheres/etc with high ambient finish
3) real light sources

options 1) and 2) need radiosity and therefore are usualy slow, on the 
other hand using 3) is slow when YOu have too meany sparks.

Btw funny I was qoing to write a small FAQ/tutorial about it I hope You 
will find it usefull :)
