Problem solved after 1.5 days of work. This is how:

When you get the error:

[2012-01-02 14:29:37 - DDMS] DDMS files not found:
C:\My_Workspace\eclipse-SDK-3.7.1-win32-x86_64\eclipse\platform-tools\adb.exe
C:\My_Workspace\eclipse-SDK-3.7.1-win32-x86_64\eclipse\tools\hprof-conv.exe 
C:\My_Workspace\eclipse-SDK-3.7.1-win32-x86_64\eclipse\tools\traceview.bat

[2012-01-02 14:30:47 - DDMS] DDMS files not found:
C:\My_Workspace\Android_SDK\platform-tools\adb.exe
C:\My_Workspace\Android_SDK\tools\hprof-conv.exe
C:\My_Workspace\Android_SDK\tools\traceview.bat

go to the site: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and download, install;
installer_r16-windows.exe

After the installation, you will still see some errors like:

Fetching
https:// dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list-1.xml Failed
to fetch URL
https:// dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list-1.xml,
reason: peer not authenticated Fetched Add-ons List successfully
Fetching URL:
https:// dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-5.xml Failed
to fetch URL
https:// dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-5.xml, reason:

https:// dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-5.xml Failed
to fetch URL
https:// dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/repository-5.xml, reason:
peer not authenticated

The problem is not so evident from the error messages. We figured that, the HTTPS is actually causing the problem. So, start

Android SDK Manager->Tools->Options and now CHECK the box that says:
force https://... sources to be fetched using http://

and then click Packages->Reload.

Everything will be installed as your wish! Now run Eclipse->Window->Preferences->Android and set the location of the newly installed Android SDK (i.e. the location of "android-sdk" folder). And you are ready to go.

1.5 days wasted for this.
