Exclamation Sensitive lock button

I love my torch 9800, but the lock button is way too sensitive. I tried a whole bunch of apps that prevent the phone from unlocking (via a slider or whatever) but I am yet to find one that disactivates the lock button. I want to lock it with the icon. I don't want the lock button to work at all. I can't even put the phone in the cradle without having it lock itself:. Help, this is a company phone and the only support I can get here is for an i-phone, and I don't want to switch.

i use draglock pro, and its great.
it does not disable the lock button, but if you hit the lock button the screen does not unlock.

Lock button has been that way since the product was released, it's the way it is. No way to completely disable the button other than opening the case and removing the contact. I don't think it's so critical that you would have to switch to an iPhone, all the smartphones have one issue or another, some you live with.
