An AD user updated their AD password, but a couple applications on their workstation appear to still be using their old AD credentials. Is there an easy way to flush out cached AD credentials on Windows (short of logging out or rebooting)?

A few google searches hinted at "gpupdate /force" but I wasn't sure if that would encompass stuff like NTLM credentials and AD passwords.
