Selling online training with Zen-Cart

I'm a newbie that really wants to switch to zen-cart for selling online training. My training files are in flash and I'm looking for a module that would give purchasers temporary access to the files on my server.

I'm looking for a module that creates a temporary directory with cryptic name and locks it with user name/password and copies all ordered training (flash files) to that temporary directory. I also need account expiration for the temp directory.

I don't want the purchasers to download my flash files, but rather have limited access to them. Any thoughts? I've searched around the forum for 2 hours and I couldn't find any thread that addressed this.

Thanks,
Ian

Re: Selling online training with Zen-Cart

Zen Cart Downloads work based on the Attributes and assigned filenames to those attributes ...

When purchased, based on the Orders Status of the Payment module ... it will determin if the download is immediately available or available after the order is updated by you ...

Zen Cart uses a Redirect method on unix servers ... unless your server is not properly set up to hand symbolic links via the .htaccess ... and creates an ambiguos directory for the download and the .htaccess blocks direct access to the downloads ...

You can set the maximum days that a file is available for download and maximum times that the customer may try ...

If needed, you can update the order or per download of an order to reset these for the customer ...

We recommend you always Zip your downloads ...

NOTE: Windows servers do not use the Redirect ...
