09-19-2010 09:19 AMHandcent sms allows you to receive the notification of a new text message in the notification bar but will not display the message if you don't want it to show.

09-19-2010 09:23 AMOr you can install handscent, disable notifications in the stock app, and in handscent put it in privacy mode. The only words that scroll are the words " you have a new message " and the actual contents stay hidden til you pull down the icon and open the message. Handscent has a feature where your messages pop up on screen, you can disable all that too. You can set it up to run and look just like the stock app, but its definitely more secure. you can even password protect the messages as they are coming in with a pin# or pattern lock. I hide everything, everyone wants to see why its so much better than an iphone, and wants to see the customizations and tools, and i dont like people poking into my messages. Some of which are quite lude and suggestive.

09-23-2010 03:36 PMNo, I would think for messengers like yahoo, aim, facebook or gtalk you would have to manually remove those conversations like you would on a pc. And don't let the app save your password to autologin. Manually login yourself when you want to chat.
