When a file is requested from my web server, is there any way to filter the request through an executable script (such as a PHP script) in order to accept or deny the file request?

I have a situation where I need to limit web clients to only one ZIP file at a time. I'm having problems with leeching, and I think that this would be an ideal solution.

I'm running Apache 1.x on Fedora Core 3. Any help would be greatly appreciated -- I need to put this system in place ASAP. I am capable of writing a script to perform the function; I just need to find out where to plug it in.

Thank you!
