How can we kill a user session?

Below are the differnt ways to remove the sessions:-

1. Session.Remove(strSessionName); -> Removes an item from the session state collection.
2. Session.RemoveAll() -> Removes all items from the session collection.
3. Session.Clear() -> Remove all items from session collection. Note: There is no difference between Clear and RemoveAll. RemoveAll() calls Clear() internally.
4. Session.Abandon() - > Cancels the current session.

This works Perfect

protected void logout()
{
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
Session.Clear();
Session.abandon();
FormsAuthentication.SignOut();
DisableBufferingOnPage()
}

protected void DisableBufferingOnPage()
{
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1); // set expiry date in the
past
Response.Expires = 0;
Response.CacheControl = "no-cache";
Response.Cache.SetNoStore();
Response.AppendHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
}

The Abandon method should write like this:
Session.Abandon();

If you want to remove a specific item from the session use (MSDN):
Session.Remove("YourItem");

If you just want to clear a value you can do:
Session["YourItem"] = null;

If you want to clear all keys do:
Session.Clear();
