I don't think this won't completely eliminate the back problem. In most 
browsers, the user can click on an arrow or something on the back button 
to get a history and jump back to any page in the history.
You can also sometimes get around this by just hitting back twice 
quickly in succession.

The best way around this is to close the browser window, if it's 
intranet you could try just making it policy that uisers close after 
logging out, or if that doesn't take off, use java script to forcibly 
close the window. (This seems to be how most internet banking sites deal 
with the issue)

Though even this won't completely solve problems, as some browsers will 
get the user to confirm the close command, or even ignore it completely.
