Sky Remote Programming

I use the old non-sky+ type of control.

I have got skybox connected to TV via scart, and dvd/vcr combi connected to second scart socket on skybox. The set up work fine excepy when I press the blue sky button at the top of my remote it switches my TV to channel 6, I set this ages ago when wasn't using scart as this was the channel the box was tuned to.

Channel six is just a snowstorm, and after a few seconds the tv automatically switches to "euroscart" and all is well.

Does anyone know how I can program the sky remote so that it no longer tries to change the TV channel away from scart. We live down in a valley with poor analogue reception so haven't even go an aerial plugged in and skybox via scart is the only way of viewing.
