The ignition is now locked and I can't even drive the car, though I can open the doors. The alarm WILL NOT shut off.

there are two plunger-type switches in your car door. one is for the lights, et. all. the other should be for your alarm. find them, figure out which is which. the alarm plunger switch should have a nut surrounding it. remove nut. pull as much of the switch and wire out as possible.
this type of switch is a N.C. (normally closed) switch. take the (what i feel is only 1..unless it's a N.O. {normally open}) one wire from the switch...and attach it to GROUND. the ground CAN be the body, or any screw close to it...attach it in any way possible. This SHOULD fix your problem. If it does not, and you're sure it's this ONE door (zone), then the "brain" of this alarm unit is shot..and all compononets of this alarm should be removed. or cut the alarm horn. reason i say that all compononts should be removed is that some alarm systems have a starter disable function. new switches may be found ..someplace
