This is just to get you started. Polishing,
modifying/customizing, and sanitizing, you're on your own.
<?php
// download.php
session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION['username'])) {
die("Unauthorized access.");
}
// Keep the directory out of the web root.
$download = '../downloads/download.exe';
$filename = basename($download);
header("Pragma: public")
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Cache-Control: public");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$filename.";");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".sizeof($download);
readfile($download);
exit(0);
?>
