I was going to make the same suggestion.

Actually, "no-store" is the most extreme anti-caching directive for the
Cache-Control header, so it alone should suffice. I've always coupled it with
"no-cache" just in case some browsers misinterpret one or the other (which some
do).

Try just those two first - no sense in beating a dead horse. :-) Throw in the
"Pragma: no-cache" to prevent caching from HTTP/1.0 agents that don't
understand Cache-Control.
