I had the same problem. 
First I tried removing SHARE from my config.sys, everything works OK.
I was going to make my win3 files read only and replace SHARE but I
never got around to it, I have been running w/o SHARE ever since.
I think the read only trick will work, but I just don't load share.

Hope it helps
