Some snippets of ideas that should be useful to you:
Build a table that relates secret tokens to filenames:
create table downloads (
token char(32) unique not null primary key,
filename varchar(255),
whattime time_stamp
);
Generate a secret token:
$token = md5(uniqid(rand(), true));
Put the file they asked for and the token in the table:
$query = "insert into downloads (token, filename) values ('$token',
'$download')";
You're on your own for the rest.
