backup black widow/fob programming help!

hi everyone,

so i bought a new car and the car came with a black widow alarm installed, a keyfob and 2 sets of keys including a spare.

The problem is that if i open the car with the key, the alarm goes off, so using the key fob is my only option. With that said, I've been wanting to get a new key fob, to use as a backup, in case I lose or misplace or lock out my current one.

How do i do this? Do i need to buy a key fob that's identical to the one i have? Also, how do i program a key fob to work and open my car?

here are the details, in case they're needed:
-my car: 1998 integra rs
-my alarm: i can see from past receipts (dated may 29, 1998 from af adutio golden electronics ltd on lougheed highway) from an owner of the car from 10 years ago that this is what was done (I think):
Black widow alarm with basic installation: led, door protection, flashing parking lights, shock sensor, manual override, switch and starter kill ($250) + optional: back-up sirent with install ($70) + Power door lock activator with install ($120)
-the key fob: square, says "Black widow" and only has two buttons. Picture included here.

any help would be appreciated!

I'm sure any of the sponsors could get them in for you.

Black Widow is stocked locally.
