You can use Group Policy to force deletion of Temporary Internet Files when the broswer is closed. This is located under User Configuration>Policies>Administrative Templates>Windows Components>Internet Explorer>Internet Control Panel>Advanced Page.

This is only going to work if your clients are joined to a domain and using IE.

Changing group policies would affect only windows machines and only internet explorer and only our own machines, which we believe to be relatively secure. Also there may be users that are used to the cookie persistence and would miss it badly.
So, it is no option, I regret.
