Why does Mozilla Extension like downthemall cause requests to a URL to appear hitting Multiple times

[chandraprakash1]

I develop a PHP code and count how much data was downloaded by the client. My code is working fine if someone directly requests my file from a browser. But if someone installs a Mozilla extensions like ‘’downthemall’’ and then the url is requested by that extension then it requests the file URL 4 times so I get the downloaded data 4 times. How do I fix this? The same happened when the user is using jDownloader software or any software.

        "exe" => "application/octet-stream",
        "zip" => "application/zip",
        "mp3" => "audio/mpeg",
        "mpg" => "video/mpeg",
        "avi" => "video/x-msvideo",
         "mp4" => "video/mp4",
    );
