All "installed" hacks would have their download links available, if a user were to download a hack more than once the install count would not go up only the download count. (vbhackers.com has this system active if you are unclear and care enough to check it out lol)

my point is the same can be done by modifying the attachment download function(s) ... if you are going to require it you might as well do it for them
