No, don't go to Answers.com! Try the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
http://www.iep.utm.edu/e/epicur.htm
It is authored by a philosophy professor in Georgia (U.S.A.) and not a bunch of nincompoops like here on Yahoo! Answers.
You might also try the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy
http://plato.stanford.edu/contents.html
And, if you have really low standards for your information, you can always try searching Wikipedia.

Philosophy - A Guide to Happiness (Channel 4) & book by Alain de Botton;
Episode 2: Epicurus on Happiness
In the second of this six part series, British philosopher Alain De Botton discusses the personal implications of the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus (341-270BCE) who was no epicurean glutton or wanton consumerist,but an advocate of "friends, freedom and thought" as the path to happiness.
extant texts by Lucritius are buried in the Vatican vaults as dangerous herasy, and substitute the idea of unrestrained gluttony
