I think this is more of a problem with how browsers cache the pages, vs. session. When the user hits back in the browser, it just loads the page from the cache, without refreshing it.

There's are potentially multiple solutions, from using javascript to handle body onload and calling a web service to see if session is still active, or telling the browser to not cache the page.
