Can the HPV virus that causes cancerous cells also cause ovarian cancer? Is there a link between the two?

As of right now, there is no link between ovarian cancer and HPV. What led you to believe that there was a link? (just curious)

I was just wondering if it's only cervical cancer that the cancer strains of HPV cause or other types of reproductive cancers like ovarian, uterin, (sp?)
etc. I'm glad there is no link as of now.
