stds, genital warts, wart virus

[seihonnoo.livejournal.com]

This is probably a silly question but I'm going to ask it anyways.

My last pap smear was abnormal so I had to go back for more testing. The test results came back and said I have the wart virus. Apparently there is a wart on my cervix?

Does this mean I have genital warts? Does this mean I have an std? If so, what do I do about this? Have any good everything-you-want-to-know-about-genital-wart links? :)

I always thought I was really careful. >.> That being said, anyone know of some good "how to have completely safe fooling around/sex" books or online articles? I'm finding my sex education to be a bit lacking.

Thanks in advanced! :)

Edits: I guess something I should add is that I'm as interested in safe intercourse as I am in safe oral sex and safe fingering. ;) I haven't had a penis in my vagina, but I have done a bit of oral sex.
That being said, I have been recently fingered by a man with a wart on his hand, could that be the reason for the wart on my cervix? One HPV strand causes warts on hands and other places on the body. Another strand of HPV is genital warts. And yet another strand of HPV can cause warts on the cervix (genital warts can also do this, but it isn't as likely). Am I getting this right?

It's a very, very low risk activity. The warts on someone's hands are not the same type of warts that infect the genitals, so that isn't really a concern. However, if the person has cuts, sores, or open wounds on their hands, and then inserts their hand into your vagina, there would be a possibility that some of their blood could possibly transmit an STI, if they have one.
