Alarm going off whilst driving
Discussion
There is a possibility that one or two of your immobilizer circuits have been bypassed, so when the alarm system goes off it is not having any effect on the car
Asfor the reason of the alarm unfortunately i cannot help you, i know that mine is connected to the door switch circuits, these are little push in pins down at the bottom of where the door meets the body, so i guess a loose / dirty switch or connector would do it maybe

as it dont have indication that your ign is switched on and that your driving the car 
As suggested above it could be due to a variety of causes but not the ECU because that is completely separate to the alarm/immobiliser circuits.
The system was acting as though it had been armed and then triggered by an intruder etc. Once triggered It is quite normal for the siren to only sound in short bursts whereas the indicators will flash continually.
Have your immobiliser circuits been bypassed?
Maybe an intermittent contact in the alarm circuit.

I have had that happen in the past. Most times simply stopping the car, locking and unlocking it, clears the fault. Also, worth checking the bonnet is properly shut, ditto the boot. When you get out and lock the car, your hazards should flash twice, not four times with beeps - that indicates the boot or bonnet sensor is not making contact.
If you cannot get rid of the flashing red light on the dash, it can be worth pushing the little black dongle on the key ring into the socket on the side of the steering column (ignition off, key out), particularly if this coincides with the car appearing to be immobilised and not starting. That one is the immobiliser having got out of synch with the key.
