usually, that indicates an evaporative vent solenoid stuck shut.
of course, it may help if you tell someone WHAT MODEL YOU DRIVE...

the light comes on anytime ANYTHING raises the emission level of the car. it often wont have any noticable performance issues at all, as is the case with the evaporative emission system.

it might have just been an isolated incedent that through the code. But like he said it probably got stuck. My guess is that wont be the last of that code you see.
