You can fix all the IE caching issues by doing this:

in the application.cfm:
<cfset token="nc=#randrange(0,999999)#">

in the page, append the token to every URL:
<a href="page.cfm?#token#">Click here to see the non-cached page</a>
<a href="page.cfm?id=123&#token#">Click here to see the other non-cached
page</a>

This makes IE think each page is different and the pages are never cached.
Works beautifully.

HTH,
