Dark matter detection experiments are getting ever closer to the sensitivity needed to detect the primary particle physics candidates for nonbaryonic dark matter. In fact, some weak indications of possibly exotic signals already exist. Indirect detection methods include searching for antimatter and gamma rays, in particular gamma ray lines, in cosmic rays and high-energy neutrinos from the center of the Earth or Sun caused by accretion and annihilation of dark matter particles. A review is given of recent progress, both on the theoretical and experimental sides.
