Change currency symbol format

We have created two websites for two different regions. On website with ID 2, we have USD as our currency and product price is shown as US$50. But we want to show it as $50(USD). Is there any way to do so?
We are using Magento 1.5 currently and also planning to upgrade it to 1.7 soon.

you have to edit the xml corresponding to the locale of your store, e.g. if you're using english of USA, the file you are looking for is MAGENTO_ROOT/lib/Zend/Locale/Data/en_US.xml. In it you add (before the </ldml> ending tag): 

<numbers>
    <currencyFormats>
        <currencyFormatLength>
            <currencyFormat>
                <pattern>¤#,##0.00(USD);(¤#,##0.00(USD))</pattern>
            </currencyFormat>
        </currencyFormatLength>
        <unitPattern count="one">{0} {1}</unitPattern>
        <unitPattern count="other">{0} {1}</unitPattern>
    </currencyFormats>
</numbers>

After that, you have to manually delete the content of MAGENTO_ROOT/var/cache/
