Keyloggers can be on a PC for different reasons:
They can be purposefully installed by the owner of the PC or they may be accidentally installed.
Usually if they are not supposed to be on the PC in question then they will have been installed as part of some form of misleading trick to get the owner to unknowingly install them.
i.e - a fake website alert when browsing the internet saying that your machine has been infected with some virus and then suggesting that you download and install a piece of software to fix it.
When you download this software the keylogger is installed as well.
Usually though key logging software will trigger an anti-virus warning so part of the answer should also be possibly include poor security on the PC in question.
