you could probably write some javascript that would disable right-clicking in your textbox or disable the Ctrl+V keyboard shotcut... Not sure what you could do about the Edit-Paste menu option, though...

Write your own browser that doesn't do copy/paste, then force all your users to download and use it.

In all seriousness, what you're trying to accomplish isn't possible. Maybe, and I mean _maybe_, if you're using Flash forms, but not with HTML forms.
