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.
