There might be an add-in or code in the Normal template that is interfering
with the paste operation. Did you install something recently (on the
affected machines)?
As a troubleshooting step, you can start in Safe mode (hold Ctrl as you
start the application). Does that make a difference?

I had a support call come in today, and can't work it out at all. Now I see
that I have the same issue! But not everybody here has this issue. We all
run
the same SOE, with Office 2003, but about 50% of users seem to be
experiencing thi issue.
We can't copy any text from web sites (even just one word or a few
characters) and paste it into Word 2003. The paste option appears on the
right-click menu, but it doesn't do anything. If I choose "Paste Special"
then "Unformatted Text" then the text appears without formatting.
Paste is working fine into Excel, Outlook, Notepad, Wordpad etc. Just not
into Word 2003.
Here is a page I was trying to copy text from:
