    There is no guaranty that the contents in a memory
    address will be preserved, unless there is someway to
    tell the OS to protect that region of memory.
    The operating system can swap out memory at any time,
    relocate a DLL in memory at any time, etc.

    This simplest solution is to reserve a portion of
    the clipboard to pass the data back and forth between
    programs because the clipboard contents is protected.
