I'm back after a long hiatus. Thanks for all the inputs again, Frank and Shakespeare. I am still trying and I am still having issues. Some changes since the last time:
1. Now I have managed to install a loopback adapter successfully and 2. I have also switched to Oracle Enterprise Edition (Personal) as I thought it might help me in troubleshooting my issues. But its interesting that I get the exact same results. 3.I copied your listener and tnsnames ora files

Frank, in response to your suggestions, please see the results below:

Trying sqlplus gives me the following:

I changed the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to those suggested by you. (Note: Now I have Oracle Std Edition, so they might be slightly different.)

listner.ora:



SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db)
(PROGRAM = extproc)

    )
    (SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db)
(PROGRAM = extproc)

    )
  )

LISTENER =
  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = extproc))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = scout.domain.com)(PORT =
1521))

    )
  )

tnsnames.ora:


ORCL =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = scout.domain.com)(PORT = 1521))     (CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)

    )
  )

EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)

    )
  )

ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = CLRExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)

    )
  )
