Some combinations of settings can produce funky stuff if full justification
is being used. Does it still act odd if justification is turned off? What
version of Word is being used? (If Word 2007, take a look at the Layout
options in Word Options - Advanced, very bottom of the dialog. Are any of
them turned on? All turned off is the default for Word 2007--if any are
turned on, ask why, and see if they're related to how Word treats spaces.)

A person on my team is getting funky spacing when he types a double space
at
the end of a sentence. Instead of using normal proportional spacing, Word
stretches out the double space so that it looks more like a triple or
quadruple space.
Single spaces between words behave normally, as do all other characters.
Is there some setting that causes elongated double spacing?
To add a wrinkle, he has both Asian and Arabic characters installed on his
computer.
