I created a server. I can enter the game but my friends won't even see it in the favorites list.
I gave them my IP and the servers IP...What should they do

is this server run from your computer?

Make sure you don't a firewall up, and make sure your router is configured correctly

Instructions for forwarding ports on your router:

portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm

In game, you will also need to type in:

sv_lan 0

into the console. For whatever reason, Counter-Strike automatically makes your game a LAN game, so people from other computers not on your network won't be able to see it.
