I suggested Flash as well.  However, it is worth noting that there are Flash 
decompilers (one for
MacOS X is cleverly called "Gordon") which could reveal the form variables.

Also, any good packet sniffer could pick up the HTTP request and reveal the 
variables.  In short,
anything you do is possible to be broken.  

I like the idea of restricting connections by IP and connections over time but 
I also know that
IPs are routinely spoofed.  Make sure your own IP is whitelisted or you may get 
locked out of your
own application.

Good security requires carefull planning.
