No one knows what triggers it. So, there is no answer for you. The last eruption was in 1944, but it is still an active volcano with 3 million people living under it now. Vulcanologist have been trying to track what triggers an eruption so they can warn people, but so far they haven't found why it erupts or when it will again. It is checked everyday for any activity.
Approximately 200 volcanoes erupted in 2007. Not all these eruptions were huge and some were ongoing eruptions that have been going on for years.
actually it happened in 79 A.D.
