Trouble installing previous version of Handcent SMS

[TxDoc]

I have version 6.9.7.6
I found several sites with earlier versions. After downloading, and I thought installing with installer, nothing changed. I'm guessing I need to delete the current version first?

Yes, you need to remove the current version before going backwards.
