Never had a problem like this. Check the snaps and other settings in your illustrator.

serafima.. i understand that.. thanks.. what i did is when i make line from 2 anchor point and when i zoom in look at the line, it isn't straight and flawless.. no matter how i moved the anchor. i tried to snap the anchor points to guide line but have not any effect, it still jiggy.. won't be a problem much if the line is short (when you zoom out).. but if the line is long enough, it becomes terrible. ( sorry for the confusion..
).. but after all this happen occasionally not all thetime, sorry for troubling you (but i still want the answer cause it's annoying.. hahahaha..)

Maybe you somehow set a brush on standard instead of normal line. Try removing all brushes that are open or loaded.

yellow_bagpack, let's do it step by step.
1) open your file: untitled-1.ai
2) select second line by selection tool (V)
3) Window > Transform (Shift+F8)
4) Set H=0 pix (current value is 1 pix)
5) Check result!
Another way to draw straight line at one stroke: click by Pen Tool (P), press Shift, click another, release Shift. Voila!
Did it solve your problem?

For anyone who's having a similar problem, keep in mind that many minor details like this, which show up when zoomed in upon, will never show up when printed, or even viewed on a monitor at normal magnification. Also, I've experienced a situation when lines will look slightly "crooked" at say, 150%, perfectly straight at 200%, then crooked again at 300% magnification. Just a function of the monitor, I think.
But again, there are many times when issues like these won't ever affect your finished product.
