Log Grow

Hi,
Simple question but, for me, not obvious.
SQL Server 2000 + SP4.
My tempdb has 3GB, the Tlog for tempdb is growing and it has now 37 GB.
Recovery model simple.
1º Question - Why is growing the tlog for tempdb ?
I could shrink the log but this is just a workaround because in 4, 5 days i
have the same situation again.
2º Question - What could i do '
Thanks in advance
