Issue with Browser back button

Tags: Vb.net, .net, c#.net, Internet explorer
Hi all,

We have developed an application which consits of 4 different steps of registration.
Step 1:Take contact details and login details.
step 2:Take some intrests of user --which are very important for registraion
step 3:Allow user to select a plan
step 4:Take payment details.

We don't want to use sessions,so what we are doing is for each and every step we are updating the database.
Now the problem came with this,lets say,user fills the first step and go to step2 and then if by any chance,he try to click the back button of the browser ,user will be on step1 again.Now when user clicks ok Button on Step1 to go to Step2,he will get errors and exits from registration incompltely or with if this happens with step2 and step3,database will be updated twicw and the registration will be completed but with wrong and duplicated data.

How can i avoid this browser probelm.Is there a way to disable back button.
