First give us litle bit more informations. Which operating system do you have as a server? Which ftp server do you want to use?
The best way to do this is to set password on directory but then you will got that problem that you will have to change password every time when someone download the program, because if someone buy the program he can give password to his friend and so on. Restrictions on ftp can be made, that is not problem. If you still want this I can help you.
