Well this thread made me wax nostalgic. All the other software recommendations are good but for me a must-have when I had Windows 3.1 was HP's Dashboard, a Program Manager replacement.

It was a start menu style launcher before it became a Windows standard, had built-in multiple desktops and resource meter.

well, i have never seen that, even though i was into various win 3.1 "skins" for a while like calmira - i'm always impressed by the sheet amount of software for win3.1 given its fairly short reign!
