Did you install one of the motion sensor programs? Most of those use the remote to activate, and disable them.

I just took this straight from the readme on theftsensor
How to Uninstall
- In the Finder, remove the following file: /Library/Launchdaemons/com.orbicule.theftsensor.plist
- Restart your Mac
- Choose Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu
- Enter the following path: /usr/bin
- Remove the TheftSensor.app file

And i have never used iAlertU so I can't help
