If you ever used the "VirtualAlloc" function  to allocate memory, you must have noticed that addresses returned are almost the same over instances of the same process. This is due to the "ZwAllocateVirtualMemory" function doing nothing to ensure the randomness of the base address returned, at least in Windows 7.
