Usually what can be done is:
GET /path/to/file:
return an HTML form with a capcha or some other method to avoid
automa
POST /path/to/file:
return an HTTP redirect using a secure hash (the hash contains a
timestamp)
GET /path/to/file?hash=xxx
check if the hash is up to date and then deliver the file to the
user (using an internal redirect or a direct method when using
mod_perl or mod_wsgi).
