Before going to your question, go and learn about proper behaviour in the
usenet; about crossposting without a followup, for example.

Probably set in one of the global config-files in /etc. Grep through them.

Doesnt matter. Leave the system files alone.
Any change you make can/may be overwritten with a patch or upgrade
and anyway its just not a good habit to develop.
Create your OWN .profile and/or your own development environment
xterm/dtterm for those "special" occasions.

In /.profile you can do:
# unset your PATH
PATH=""
# reset the PATH and export
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/dt/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/bin
export PATH

This assumes that the shell you use will source .profile..
