Help How do I turn off messages?

I just switched from the pre and am loving it. One problem: I installed a market app for messages and now I get TWO notifications for each text. I cannot find a way to "turn off" the stock app. Ideas? Thanks in advance!


Settings>Sound & Display>Notification Flash

Uncheck SMS/MMS

Do not use the stock "Messages" app to send / reply to texts. Use your third party one that you downloaded (I use HandScent SMS). Download TasKiller from Market and install. Item's listed in yellow can be killed, just be careful which ones you pick. Some of the core items show up in yellow, I leave those alone.
