So I am playing with my friends and one makes a LAN Server. I look for it but nothing pops up. It was very weird, so I tried making one. They found it, tried, and it wouldn't log in. It said something like "Connection refused: Connect". Any Help? Ask for info if you need to.
Try deleting and re installing minecraft, the option should pop up again.
that may not work as the firewall may remember the previous application setting due to minecraft not really being installed (minecraft is just there, no install programs are run)
just open your firewall application rules settings and change it from deny to allow (how exactly this is done depends on which firewall you have)
I tried and I couldn't find that, but maybe it's because I use a different firewall. I have a Windows 8 comp. if that helps, but if I just wasn't looking hard enough or something else let me know.

Go to Control Panel > Windows Firewall > Allow an app or feature thrugh windows firewall(its on top left) > Change Settings(top Right) > Allow Another App > Browse to Minecraft
Minecraft is located at %appdata%/.Minecraft/bin/
Just paste that in the address bar...
You may also need to add the port, this can be done by:
Control Panel>Windows Firewall>Advanced Settings>
Make an inbound rule and outbound rule for TCP port 25565
If not then that would be the reason why it is not accessible.
