Hi<br />
<br />
I want my clients to download some small scripts from my website. I will be displaying the list of scripts and after the successful payment, I want to give them a link to download. <br />
<br />
Now, my question is how to make the download safer. The client should not distribute the link or it should not be accessed directly. Any thoughts?
