Hi innercircle123,
The Silk Road URL has not changed recently; it is still http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion
There have, however, been connection time-out issues. This is most likely due to an increased load on the server with the surge of new members visiting the site after recent media exposure, or it be due to maintenance or upgrades by SR staff.
If you try to access the site repeatedly and still cannot get to it, hit "Use a New Identity" in the Vidalia Control Panel.
Anytime you're having problems you can use the following site to check if Silk Road is up or down:
http://zw3crggtadila2sg.onion/downornot/index.php?url=silkroadvb5piz3r.onion
The message "Yes (but with 302 error)" means that Silk Road is currently accessible to most / all users.

I am having issues as well. tried closing TOR and restarting it but still can't access SR. tried using new identity about 10 times, no luck. checked that site, says it's up but with 302 error. Ugh.. guess i'll keep trying.
EDIT it worked. just keep spamming the refresh button i guess
