Default alarm won't shutup/dead battery

i left my teg in the shed for 2 long, battery dies. Immobilizer won't beep, (one of the old tags under dash immobilizers) and alarm system won't activate ( from key remote). So I get a jump..everythings great, idle it for 5 mins then turn it off. I get out of car and activate alarm. The alarm goes off (door opened) and then I can't get turn it off. ( The neighbors love this). I try the other key remote i have, no good. I finally disconnect the battery using a wrench. whenever i put the connect the battery again the alarm goes off and my damn remote doesn't work. I tryed jumping the car again..engine goes on security system enabled..can't be disabled. 94 integra. immobilizer installed when bought. security system installed later. it's a clifford alarm..

Just put your alarm in valet mode by flipping the switch under the dash, then unplug your fuses for the alarm under the dash, then cut the siren wires and splice them back later. lol.

mine would go off after being set for awhile. my battery was dying. i went to autozone for a free battery check, and it showed it losing power at a fast rate. got a new battery, didnt have that problem again.

when u reconnect the battery, the alarm goes off. like if someone was trying to tamper with your alarms power.

k I sent my battery in to be charged up..my alarm was put in the car in '99. Would it be better just to take it in 2 futureshop and just get a new alarm? is my car a target because of the old alarm?

*whistles* thx for the help guys . I got a new battery and everythings working fine now except the alarm. It's still won't stop going off and won't respond to the keyless remotes. Could the radio signal not be correct? sort of like if you take apart a garage door opener and you see the code inside. Is there any way to correct that or should i go see some experts. If I were to get a new alarm system installed would whoever installs it be able to integrate the keyless locks/siren that I already have?
