Run disk cleanup which will remove any compressed files used in the SP-2 installation.

On SP-1 you could choose whether to keep files so you could uninstall it. On SP-2 you have no choice (which is a good thing if you want to uninstall it). I think you can delete these files if you do not want to uninstall SP-2. I guess in todays terms, 1GB is a small price to pay for the ability to remove the ill-advised SP-2.
