Hi

Am experiencing weird problems with Illustrator cs5 on osx 10.6.8:

Scaling - for some reason the image get distorted after scaling. see example:

Each time I scale it'll do it differently. this time it made the right side thicker.

Any idea why is that?

Alignment - the bounding box has offset and when aligning it doesn't align the objects right:

Any idea what I need to do to fix this?

Check if "Align to pixel grid" is on.

Thanks. It was on. Is there any way to set it to be unchecked as default?
