What does the extension .asp involved with?

As for .asp (active server pages), that's sort of a whole different ball game. ASP is a fairly powerful bit of scripting, programming, whatever, that can allow you to handle all sorts of things, and carry information from page to page. This is true for things like login features, complex forms handling, shopping carts for ecommerce, etc. The Storefront add in for FP makes extensive use of .asp pages for that purpose. It allows a site to be much more dynamic than simple HTML alone could ever do.

One last note: practically any and all hosting companies will handle cgi, not all will handle asp.

Back to this question:
"Exactly what is involved to install a CGI script to your CGI bin on your host server (do you do it yourself or have to contact the host?)"

Do you ftp a cgi file (see what this newbie is getting at?)
