    There are multiple reasons for this

    1) Because most students and low income guys cant afford other products.
    2)Most low risk users think its enough for them.
    3)Products like Avast and MSE are as good as paid products with advance plus ratings.
    4)You can use them with windows firewall , which makes it lite for low end pc's and net books.
    5)Use sandboxie free and good free firewall (pc tools,comodo,OA,etc) you are equally safe (as paid products).:thumb:

    These are a few reasons as far as i can remember right now,there maybe few more if someone can remember..:argh: These all add up to a lot of free users thus dominating the market.
