Start Problem

2003 Ford Escape. The problem is that in colder weather below freezing it has an intermittant starting problem. It seems to be the anti-theft system. When it does start it starts just fine so it can't be the battery. It's hard to know for sure, but it seems like locking and unlocking the doors with the keyless remote helps it work. Has anyone else experienced problems with the anti-theft system in cold weather?
