You could make the download area password protected and issue a unique
password to the user, who has to enter it to access the download. Then just
ensure that each password can only be used once. One problem you may
encounter is users entering the download area, but not downloading the
software, then getting stuck when they try to enter the area again , as the
password will have expired.
