I stand by my comments - most publishers are genuine and will deal with 
software companies legitimately and the process normally works well.

For background, I work for an ERDF-backed project that in the past has 
assisted several dozen software companies and publishers, specifically in 
the games sector, get together and work together with few hitches.

Still, selling software obviously isn't your bag, and that's your choice. 
Without the "notoriously f***ed up" games industry though, the whole of the 
IT industry would probably be a lot deader than it is.
