If your Citrix is THAT much slower, there are bigger issues at play. But, your question pertains to Word, so I'll try to stick to that ;)
If the password functionality works as intended then the problem is indeed local to the machine in question. What I would suggest trying (after backing up a current, passworded copy to an alternate location such as a home folder or other network drive) is completely removing password protection. Open the file, and then open the file via Citrix. Confirm that both methods work without passwords. Then, re-enable the password protection. Test locally, then test via Citrix. If you can successfully add the password back to the file and it works via Citrix but not locally, repair or reinstall Office 2003.
I honestly can't remember where the security modules live for Office 2003 - it's either local to each program or it's part of a shared module library. On that note, I'd recommend at least a full repair first, and failing that, then a fulll install.
