[THIN] OT: Oracle Client

W2K3 R2/SP server, MPS4.0, local DS, using Oracle 10g client for client apps. Using filemon I see the app is looking for a file named oraociei11.dll, which doesn't exist. There is, however, a file named oraociei10.dll which makes sense since we have 10g installed and oracle typically puts the major version number in their file names. So why in the heck is this app looking for a version 11 file? I.e., where does the app get the info from regarding what files it should be launching? I've searched the registry - nothing. Next  up, text search every file on the box.
 
Needless to say, the app isn't getting connected to oracle.
 
Any oracle God(desses)s here?
 
thanks
