Is this what you are getting at?

My site is hosted on its own domain (blah.com), as well as my forums on another (blahforums.com). When you try to access the directory where my files are at /files (blah.com/files) it asks you for a a login and password. It does this check to the forums then proceeds. If not, you get no file. I also have a private members section where it does the same but also checks to see if they have a flag that I have issued them. Without this flag, no private file. This is done with .htaccess and the sql database of the forums.

I'm going to use this :) Using a popup script and disabling viewing of the address bar or the right mouse button, so thanks for the hack :)

erm, there's like 10 errors in your demo o.O

ok 6...^_^;;

You can ALWAYS use Ctrl-D and see the bookmarks (Ctrl-B). This way you have the full URL clearly on screen!
What a hack!!!
:?:

Well I know why there are errors...-__-

because you have to edit the downlaod.php

I found this script for download at php.resourceindex
Its similar atleast.

I am gonna make my own hack similar, but better ;) To this, now how would I go about making that

http://yourdomain.com/download.php?file=download12312 ?

Though I am giving GameZilla credit for the IDEA.....
New Name :)
Don't want to get flamed by Zilla here

i think that we all just want a working one :)

Zilla has made the 1st step ;)

Yea I got it working on vb 2.2.2 with no errors.....
time to hide the url of the file in the DB

95% of people on the internet have never touched their right button on a webpage. ;) And 95% haven't got a clue. :) The 5% I don't care if they register. ;)

this hack has too many errors, but its pretty cool!
