Is it possible to encrypt of hide the paypal auto return url?

Is it possible to encrypt of hide the paypal auto return url?

I have a program that I wish to sell via paypal, but once they user pays for the software, they are taken to a download page with is simple to share. I know I can t prevent people from the file, but the customers who buys this software are not often that savvy, so making it a little difficult to share the link would probably work quite well. I though maybe of passing a url parameter from the auto return that enabled the download? My web host is only html, so some of the more backend options won't work. I could email the link, but I was hoping for an auto response. I could password protect the file and have the password emailed, but that is less appealing. If anyone has a simple deterrent solution, I would love to hear it (hiding the url I guess is not possible with many browsers now?)
