Default Some newbie questions

Hi all,
I am a new player trying to get into SE4, and it's proving to be rather complicated. I am munching the huge FAQ right now, I have found answers to some questions already, but some still remain. I will list them here in hope somebody will enlight me. Please remember that as I am a new player, all these questions concern the start phase of the game with very little tech.
1) I am getting tech trade deals from the AI, where is gives me "unknown tech", and it mostly is a tech that I already know. How to prevent that?
2) I am able to attack a planet 6 times per turn. So I can kill a homeworld with the most puny ships. That looks a bit strange to me.
3) The missiles seem to be an uber weapon. I win all combats (tactical) with no loses, due to their superior range. Again feels strange.
4) I have read the tip about getting other "breathers" to colonize other types of atmosphere. Having no better idea how to get these guys, I tried to trade for a planet. And the AI sold me its homeworld!! It had some colonies, so this seems to be a completely braindead behaviour. I started to worry if the singleplayer aspect of the game is working.
