Is there a way to override how sharepoint security handles security?
Basically I have a web page where the content of the page is driven
based off of query string parameters. I would like all possible
combinations of parameters to be indexed. I have a page that lists out
all of the possibilities with a link to the page with the corresponding
query string parameters sent in. I want to know if it is possible to
tell the search engine/protocol handler what users should have access
to the pages based of what query string parameters are sent in?

So then when user a searches for something they only see what they
should instead of a link to a page in which they do not have access to
the content for particular query string parameters.

Let me know if more detail is needed.

The security of a search is based on the user account being applied and
filtering the results returned. If a user does not have access to a
site / list that contains some content it does not display it to them.

Is this not sufficient?

Ok, but what if the page is a webpart page that the content is driven
by query string values. In that case everyone will need access to the
particular webpartpage, but logic in the page would check which user is
hitting the page and what parameters are being passed and then figure
out if they have access. The user account that is actually performing
the crawl has access to everything since it needs to cache all of the
content.
