if any electrical components are on in the car (ex. door left open, dome light on)
or even if you have a sound system. it will spark because the electrical system is trying to suck juice from the battery when you connect it.
this is just one possability.

How much of a spark? If it's huge (bright flash, welding metal), do you have the terminals reversed?
