You can use Session.Abandon to assist in logging out a session.

However, there is little you can do when the user clicks the back button.
Quite often the browser still has a rendered copy of the page and
re-displays it without asking the server for permission.

There is no requirement that a browser refresh anything in its history.

One approach to the problem is to redirect to the protected page AT LOGOFF.
This should replace the history entry for that page, and trigger the LOGON
page. This seems to trip up the history in IE and Opera, but has no effect
on Gecko browsers.

Of course, the history belongs to the user, not to you. If you showed it to
him, then he has the right to see it again.
