This may not actualy destroy everything in the session. The example of
killing a session that uses cookies below is from
http://au.php.net/session_destroy

// Unset all of the session variables.
$_SESSION = array();

// If it's desired to kill the session, also delete the session cookie.
// Note: This will destroy the session, and not just the session data!
if (isset($_COOKIE[session_name()])) {
setcookie(session_name(), '', time()-42000, '/');
}

// Finally, destroy the session.
session_destroy();

I don't think it's the answer to your prob though. I'll be very interested
to here what others have to say. There was a previous post a few days ago
about a similar problem.
