How to fix following OWA / Password Flaw?

Scenario

Employee logs into Webmail, say at a hotel kiosk

Employee selects "private computer" as an option

Employee finishes work and leaves hotel

Employee remembers they left kiosk without logging out

Employee knows that typing "https://web" may or will autocomplete with full TMO Webmail address

Employee suspects (which is true) persistent cookie will show then as logged in.

Employee sets up their laptop, logs into VPN, changes Outlook password.

HOWEVER, Webmail will still show them as logged in, password change on network does not affect current login, at least not in a short period of time.

By default the Private logon will have a longer *working/active* hours without refering back to the servers.

As per the URL:
Configuring Forms-Based Authentication for Outlook Web Access

Recycle time for authentication key if you use the default time-out value ...for a private logons....4 hours

If you really need to change the values...you can do by registries (is that really needed?)

I agree, that aspect is pretty straight forward, I am curious about the password change reference and how it relates
