Should username/password be encrypted with password authenticatio n in PuTTy ssh1?

Hi,

I found in the putty.log file the plain text username and password when
using the password authentication. Are they logged before transmitted or
logged as they are transmitted:

Outgoing packet type 4 / 0x04 (SSH1_CMSG_USER)
  00000000 00 00 00 06 64 5f 70 72 6f 64 ....d_prod
Outgoing packet type 9 / 0x09 (SSH1_CMSG_AUTH_PASSWORD)
  00000000 00 00 00 06 64 5f 70 72 6f 64 ....d_prod
