Sign out problem in SharePoint 2010

I solved my problem :)

  if (HttpContext.Current.Request.Cookies["FedAuth"] != null)
  {
    HttpCookie requestCookie = new HttpCookie("FedAuth");
    requestCookie.Secure = false;
    requestCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddYears(-1);
  }
            FederatedAuthentication.SessionAuthenticationModule.SignOut();
FormsAuthentication.SignOut();

Response.Redirect("~/redirecturl");

Moss How to remove My settings in Welcome Menu

1. Take a copy of Welcome.ascx file (under 12 hive\Template\ControlTemplates folder)
2. Rename it as CustWelcome.ascx
3. Find the tag with Personalization For Eg:

<SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate runat=”server” id=”ID_PersonalInformation”
     Text=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_personalinformation%>”
     Description=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_personalinformationdescription%>”
     MenuGroupId=”100″
     Sequence=”100″
     ImageUrl=”/_layouts/images/menuprofile.gif”
     UseShortId=”true”
     Visible=”true”
     />
Change the Visible to false (if visible is missing add it and set it as false)

<SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate runat=”server” id=”ID_PersonalInformation”
     Text=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_personalinformation%>”
     Description=”<%$Resources:wss,personalactions_personalinformationdescription%>”
     MenuGroupId=”100″
     Sequence=”100″
     ImageUrl=”/_layouts/images/menuprofile.gif”
     UseShortId=”true”
     Visible=”false”
     />

Now go to the master page and change the reference from welcome.ascx file to CustWelcome.ascx
