What I'm proposing to you it's a solution that works only on JS enabled browsers, but since this is almost the 99,99% of the browser on the market shouldn't be a problem :-)
On the onClose event of the window object (javascript object) opens a new window of 10px that is displayed off the screen (8000px left): this windows will contain a page that close all session specific resources as soon as the user exit, without having to wait the session timeout to expire I used it many times, also to provide a "u forgot to save what you did, are you sure you want to exit the page?" alert (but this need a onBeforeClose event that is available only on IE).
