It then probably is a problem with Microsoft's way of integrating
copy'n paste. MSIE is transferring to MS Word not just a blob of text,
but also information about the embedded graphics etc. Word then tries
do download those graphics, but since it's another process it doesn't
share MSIE's knowledge of the user's password and thus the password
request.

Squid can't do anything here without severely compromising your security levels.
