download manager looking

download manager

[ianternet]

I am looking for a good download mananger that does the folowing for users

1. hides file extension/ file name
2. hides the directory of the file
3. stops download leeching
4. no link back for the download (other sites puts download link on their site for the download)
5. ability to see stats of downloads
6. force downloads (pdf files doc files etc)

I think that is it - I am looking for a real good one specifically a free one as I tried some others and I didnt like them after testing it out...so are their any good simple ones out there?

You are going to have to check the script repositories for pre-made scripts (sourceforge, hotscripts, etc...). The best thing for you is to try some of them out. That is the only way you are going to know if you will like it.

Best of luck!

Cubecart has a built in digital product download manager. It's integrated into the shopping cart, but does all that you have requested.

You can do something like this:

<?php

$file = "/path/to/file.zip";

// You can put anything you want here, maybe some download tracking code and anti-leech etc..

// Now force the download without revealing its path
header("Content-type: application/zip");
header("Pragma: public");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Content-Length: " . filesize($file));
echo file_get_contents($file);
?>
