Default Pinging... what causes it exactly? How is it avoided/fixed?

My current daily-driver (2004 Escape) has been 'pinging' on occasion. Particulalry when going up hills or under load at low speeds.
I want to fix it... but to do that, I need to understand what causes it...??
Is it fuel related? Spark plugs? carbon build up?
