Use the following Javascript and keep the same in the head Section of your webpage to disable Page Refresh throgh F-5 key. May not work with older versions of IE or some other Browsers like Google Chrome.

if (document.all) {
document.onkeydown = function () {
var key_f5 = 116; // 116 = F5
if (key_f5==event.keyCode) {
event.keyCode=0;
alert ("Sorry! You can not refresh this page!");
}
