Try this in your servlet:
res.setIntHeader("Expires", 0);
res.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
And this in the page source:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="cache-control" CONTENT="no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="expires" CONTENT="0">
IE ignores the cache directives but seems to respect the Expires header. Both of
the above probably aren't necessary but they don't hurt. Hope this helps.

P.S. Help is free but the title did get my attention :-)
