How do you dynamically hide items in a menu?

Does anybody know if there's a way to dynamically hide the contents of a menu after it's been defined?

Specifically: I would like to define a single menu with x number of options, and pop it up when the user clicks on one of several icons on my page. But, depending on which icon they click (and other, user-specific circumstances), I want to hide some of those menu options.

I'd rather not define a separate menu for each permutation, because there can potentially be a *great* many permutations.

Any ideas? Thanks.
