Perhaps you could use an .access and .access_gate file in the download
directory to protect access to the files (ie, use the settings in .access_gate
to deny all those who have not paid up access to the files.)  If you were to do
that, giving out the full path would not be a problem because the system, if
configured correctly, would be required to do some stuff before a user was
allowed access to the files.

thanks (what does ciao mean?)
