Default Door Problem

So here it is I have a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse gs 2.4l manual tranny....It has a black widow bw3000 security system installed on it. The problem is that the door locks at random decide they want to unlock the car. I have taken the alarm system off to narrow the problem down to the car itself. I can not do anything to duplicate the doors unlocking and it is never the same time of day or anything. It is a pretty big problem.
ps. when the alarm was on it stayed armed even tho the doors decided to unlock..
ps. the car has been in mine for almost a year and worked perfectly fine for most of the time. when the problem came up nothing had been done to the car for a while.

Can anyone help me please
