ServerVariable Caching

Everyone,

I don't know if I'm putting this in the right group or not (sorry). I'm
developing a website, using ASP VBScript, and I'm using
Response.ServerVariable("cert_subject") to get information about the client's
certificate (smart card). But this variable is cached, the user can take the
smart card out, and the previous data is still there. It's only until you
close the browser and reopen IE that it flushes it. Does anyone know of a way
to flush that particular variable, or force IE to relook at the cert each
time of the response call?

Thanks
Robert

None that I know of. This information is supplied by the browser so that
is where the behavior is dictated.
