When resizing a vector group in Illustrator CS5.5 with a custom made symbol in the group I get distortion of the proportion of the shape.
I've tried
Tried resizing with selection tool holding down shift or option
Turning off align to pixel grid in the transform panel
Turning off align to pixel grid in the symbol option
Checking Enabled Guides for 9-slice scaling is turned on
Checking Scale Stroke & Effects is turned off in preferences
Can you help me resize this without the distortion?

Thanks so much for your help.
The problem was that 9-slice scaling and align to pixel grid had to be turned off for the symbol that wasn't resizing correctly. We'd turned it off for the objects but not the symbol - hence the distortion.
Have you tried grouping first? Maybe clear everything in the appearance panel?
If the curve is corrupt somehow, maybe running a path>simplify (with the settings turned down where it doesn't change the shape) will redraw the shape? Long shot, but it may un-corrupt it...
