Hello Michael!

Pointers in C/C++ are they virtual memory addresses or are they real
addresses,

A Usermode Application only deals with virtual memory.

what I mean is if I have program 1, and send a pointer to
something to program 2, will it be an address that is not available to
program 2 or appears to be in program 2's vrtual memory space ?

It is simply not possible to pass an pointer to another process, since
each process has its own memory-space.

* Serialize the Data
* or you use memory mapped files
* or use a kind of communication protocoll like RPC, Named Pipes,
Mailslots or even Sockets.
