There are no disadvantages. Too many advantages to list.
So nothing can go wrobg with jailbreaking or anything? Really only want to jailbreak because i was hoping to find an app that i could maybe put a lock on my messages and files? And also i seen alot of anazing themes.

A jailbreak can always be reversed. So no jailbreaking can't "brick" your device.
Lockdown pro is an excellent Cydia app for locking apps down. You can put a passcode lock on any app with Lockdown pro.

Thats great news. Any way u can stop the txt message thing from popping up on the front of my screen also? Find this abit annoying. Where can i read more about how i jailbreak etc?

Yep!! You'll have to do a tethered jailbreak. You'll have to plug your phone into a computer every time it powers off or reboots.
Here's a guide that'll explain it more and show you the proper download links!
