Will my scripts be safe in the hands of agents? Will they not publish my books under a new title?

Question by emmanuel o: Will my scripts be safe in the hands of agents? Will they not publish my books under a new title?
In my previous question, I asked how I could get a reliable and good publisher to publish my books (works of fiction, seven in number). Among the answers I received was the one advising me to get an agent, as publishers no longer take jobs directly from writers.

Now my quesetion is how can I be sure that my scripts would be safe in the hands of the agents. Is there no likelihood that they will try to publish my work under a new title, thus denying me the benefit that would accrue to me from my creativity?

The key with that is to get a reputable agent, one that other folks you know have had good experiences with.
