There are several ways of doing this, depending on how you want it to work.
For starters:

o How do you want the "send this page to a friend" function to work? For
example, do you want to open a new message in the visitor's mail program,
with your URL in the message body, or do you want an HTML form to send the
message, or what?

o How do you want to collect the "friend" e-mail addresses? As cc's to
yourself?
In a database? In a text file?

o Are you running on a Windows Web server?

o Do you have any programming skills?
