To whom it may concern: I purchased an extension to manage uploads (which is great), but I cannot seem to get the files or their URLs to be protected to MEMBERS ONLY.  I can reveal the link to the PDF for example, copy it, and paste it directly to another web-browser, which makes the file completely exposed and open to anyone (without logging in).

Can anyone offer some suggestions as to how to control this or get this fixed?
