Default Won't start possible alarm malfunction

Hi I am new to the forum. From san bernardino, CA. Yesterday, had a weak battery situation. Very slow crank and then enough starter speed to start car. Ran battery charger for 2 hrs. same condition. Took vehicle to Autozone for battery guarantee. Unlocked hood, locked car, went inside to see how Autozone would handle the guarantee. They said free replacement, so I headed back out to car but was hearing a car alarm going off. It was my car so I must have tripped the panic button on the remote. A little confused I shut off the alarm by pressing unlock on the remote and immediately proceeded to disconnect old battery. Came back out with new battery, installed it and NO power to starter motor. All accessories & lights work fine, ignition relay clicks, checked all fuses, checked new battery, all okay? It seems too improbable that the starter solenoid or neutral safety switch failed. Is it something related to the factory alarm system, like an immobilization default since the battery was removed right after the alarm sounded? Any ideas? Thank you. Dan
