hmm seems to have lost my own reply. Yes, well i'm using CGI::Session, and I wanted to know whether there was a way to clean up my saved cgi object (CGI.pm). Could it be $session->clear($cgi)? let's take another sample: 
main.pl :

 my $cgi = New CGI;
 my $session = new CGI::Session();

 $cgi->param("name", "Barney");

 $session->save_param($cgi); #saves cgi object into session
 $cgi->redirect(URI => "body.pl?sessionid=".$session->id);

[download]
then on body.pl : 

 my $cgi = New CGI;
 my $sessionid = $cgi->param("sessionid");
 my $session = new CGI::Session($sessionid);

 $session->load_param($cgi);
 $cgi->param("name"); #we still have barney around.

 $session->clear($cgi); #ASSUMPTION - CLEAN UP CGI

 $cgi->redirect(URI => "car.pl?sessionid=".$session->id);

[download]
Then on car.pl : 

 my $cgi = New CGI;
 my $sessionid = $cgi->param("sessionid");
 my $session = new CGI::Session($sessionid);

 $session->load_param($cgi);
 print $cgi->param("name"); #should not have anything anymore
