File downloadable only once?

Recommended Posts

Is this possible? I've got a php script that handles encrypted data. When a file is requested for download, another script will decrypt the file, and then in theory serve it to the user, so they can download an unencrypted copy. Obviously i don't want these unencrypted versions hanging around, so is there a way of making each unencrypted copy not downloadable more than once? So it gets deleted right after the user has finished downloading it, and preferably is done in such a way as to prevent multiple people downloading it at once.

Any ideas?
