@Bruno,

Thanks for your reply, you were right, I had to put the lines of code
before form=
This works:

def user():
    ....
    if request.args(0)=='profile':
        db.auth_user.comment.readable=False
        db.auth_user.comment.writable=False
        db.auth_user.reply.readable=False
        db.auth_user.reply.writable=False
    form=auth()
    ....
    return dict(form=form)


@Richard,

Thanks for your reply. I am not sure, in my app users with different
roles see different parts of the auth_user table, the comment and
reply field are there for the administrator, see this post:
