Browser close does not close connection

I have an applet that runs within the browser.  It makes AS/400 calls to 
databases using servlets.  The connection to AS/400 is kept open until user 
logs out of the applet. There is a killconnection() method that gets fired and 
this closes the connection and gets out smoothly.  This all works fine but when 
user closes the browser (i.e. clicks on the 'X' of the browser), the connection 
is still open since the killconnection() method does not get fired.  Is there 
any way I could recognize the browser close or restrict user from closing the 
browser without logging out of the applet?

Thanks in advance,
Sudha
