Word 2000 and SBS2008, cannot set default font

I have just upgraded a client to Small Business Server 2008.  They use Office 2000 because it works for them and they don't want to spend more money.  

The client pc's are running Windows 7 Pro.  Everything is running well except, now, when the users try to save the default font in Word 2000 as Arial , it will not stay set. It reverts to the installation default which is Times Roman.  The client used to have Small Business server 2003 and this problem did not exist.

I suspect there is some gpo in Small Business Server 2008 which is causing this behavior?  

How would you troubleshoot this?
