I was all in, so it sounds like what happens is that I go all in, 2 other players call and they bet. One of them ends up folding, then even though I end up in a 1v1 situation for the remainder of the hand it announces the other player as the winner since he won money from the player who folded earlier.

This is actually pretty confusing as a player, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
That's called a side pot. It is in the rules of poker. No fix.

When last I held him to my breast
But now we dance this grim fandango
And will four years before we rest.
