That's WIMPS, early candidates for dark matter included primordial black holes and dust.

WIMPS are most probably not real. They'll keep searching but it's quite unlikely they'll find any.

A good point. I have heard of primordial black holes as a candidate for (at least some) dark matter. Not heard that dust was ever a candidate (if you have a reference it would be appreciated).
