(Browser Side) how to prevent IDM(internet download manager) from trying to download auth protected files

Viewed 371

we have a web app in production, one of our services includes paid files. which after purchasing, user is able to download them . so obviously download needs an authenticated user.

but IDM(internet download manager) tries to download the file , asking a password from user.

we don't want to ask our users to change their IDM settings . and we don't want our download to get interrupted by IDM. what can be done with js and html in this situation? any tricks?

thank you.
