NYCPHP Meetup

[Mitch Pirtle]

The way I have done it in the past included mod_rewrite looking for
/downloads/ and redirecting that to download.php with the following
directory as a token, and the final filename as the target file for
download.

You can generate the tokens at random, and store them in the session
for that particular user.  If they match, then they get the file.

It isn't perfect (or that detailed) but works for the majority of sites, no?
