Taken from Netscape's ws32info.txt:
Removing Win32s
To remove the Win32s, do the following:
1. Remove the following line from the [386Enh] section in the
SYSTEM.INI file:
device=<WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>\win32s\w32s.386
where <WINDOWS> and <SYSTEM> are where the Windows and System
directories are, respectively.
2. Remove winmm16.dll from the following line from the [BOOT] section
in the SYSTEM.INI file:
drivers=mmsystem.dll winmm16.dll
3. Delete the following files from the <WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>
subdirectory:
W32SYS.DLL
WIN32S16.DLL
WIN32S.INI
4. Delete all the files in the <WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>\WIN32S subdirectory.
Then delete the subdirectory itself.
5. Restart Windows.
