the only file in "C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_2\NETWORK\ADMIN" are
"tnsnames.ora" and "sqlnet.ora" and couple of
"sqlnet0706135PM3146.bak" files.

here is the content of "sqlnet.ora" file :

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT) and the content of "tnsnames.ora" file:
dmprodev=
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = DMPRODEV)(PORT = 1521))     )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
    )
  )

and here is exactly a scrape of windows prompt since I open it:
"

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
