How much does they earn to sell this answer to the users?

I was told that some get upto 40% commission of the product sale.. Most of them buy CD packs in bulk so they get a pretty big discount of it and also since they "promote" the product they get another discount.. So they try and scare people who are using other AV products and try to sell their own...

When I receive an answer like "disable your antivirus, please..." I just hang the phone and never talk to that "support" anymore... I hate push sales...
