When you jump started the vehicle, it started as normal and you drove to a shop to have a new battery installed.?? Correct??
1. Who removed the old battery and installed the new one?
2. Did the car start normally immediately after the new battery was fitted? How frequently were you able to drive the car on the new battery before the problem you described appeared?
3. Has anything been done to the vehicle since the new battery was fitted.?

The factory security light will remain on - this is a standard feature indicating the car is dead.
First, unplug the hazard fuze in the engine bay (this will reset the ecu and remove the flashing)
Next, replace the battery with a new one (or one with proper charge) - keep in mind a small battery will not do anything for these cars, the engines require a lot to push them over (it isnt a honda)
*Make sure to clean the positive and negative battery cables from acid
Then just start it up :)

your charging mechanism may ave gone bad or even your alternator. you can check those things out at autozone. they'll check it and i think it's free

sounds like someone needs a new battery..
if the battery will not take a charge, or jump start, it usually means the battery cells are either dry or unusable, replace battery and try again

your alarm system has been tripped when the battery went dead, to get the information on how to reset the alarm is to call the car manufacture to get the procedure, and should not cost you anything.
