asp.net forms authentication override based on individual pages.

Hi,
I have a asp.net application with forms authentication enabled.
Users create private (database driven) messages (pages; like a message
board) that is only viewed by logged in users.

Now I need to give the users the ability to publish these messages to the
public (if they decide the content is public safe).

Question is... is there a method to override forms authentication?
For an example; some thing like a method... where I look at the URL and
retrun true or false... so forms authentication is ignored based on this
method return value....


Basically to programatically ignore forms authentication for that request
only.

Any direction is deply appreciated
Thanks
Nalaka
