Theoretically, it is possible, in practice, it is hard or impossible. Last year in France, several trials were won by consumers asking for a refund. Trials are becoming more and more numerous as the French Linux Association (www.aful.fr) published a refund guide on www.racketiciel.info. Other international actions are listed on www.racketware.info.
The French Linux Association is aiming as optionality rather than refund. Consumers should have the choice to pay for pre-installed software (then they get an activation code) or not to pay. In the latter case, pre-installed software cannot be decrypted and activated and are thus unusable.
