Emergency Icon in DOT unlock screen

I have the Samsung moment, Android 1.5 OS .I was wondering if anyone had any idea on how to remove the emergency 911 icon in the DOT unlock pattern screen. Or a way to put a different lock cause that icon gets on my nerves. Every time i put the phone in my pocket and accidently push a button in my pocket it automatically calls 911 without me knowing. Im going to end up getting in trouble maybe. Plus its just annoying. I wanna know if anyone knows how to remove it or set a different type of lock or something to just prevent it.

Every android 1.0 and 1.5 has it. When you put a pattern lock on it. It only shows when the phone is locked. When you hit the power buttton then hit menu itll show undernearth the dots or next to them. When the phone doesnt have a lock on it, it doesnt show up. The Icon has a cross and it says "Emergency Call" When you hit the power button itll say on the "press menu to unlock or to place emergency call"
