Alright I have been trying to play for about a week now but I keep having the same problem. I have downloaded and redownloaded the client but every time I open the client and click on a server to play, I get a pop up window that says the server is offline. I have turned my fire wall off and tried that way to but its a no go. I even tried to copy the folder and everything from my buddies computer but even that didn't work.
Any ideas would be lovely.

Delete the silkroad folder then disable your virus scanner. Extract silkroad again then try to run it. If it works add the folder or silkroad.exe as a excluded file in your virus scanner settings. Dunno if this will help or not tho, but others had to do this before.
