Does anyone know why sometimes a program name appears in the v$ views for user sessions, and sometimes nothing?

I noticed that sqlplus appears as sqlplus.exe, and other problems as their executable file name, but for TOAD nothing appears.

Is there a way to force Oracle to collect this information?
