How to get around the pesky case sensitivity of Linux webservers.

Administering web servers as a hobby has brought me to this problem more than once. One of my projects at work requires mirroring a corporate intranet site on a Linux server. The site dump comes from a Microsoft Windows server. On average there are about 2000 lines of code that need to be fixed to link correctly on a Linux server; due to it being a case sensitive operating system. Now, instead of manually fixing links and renaming files every month, I built a script that can get the job done in under 2 minutes. All you have to do is drop this script in the root of any website and click the convert button. It is freeware and currently hosted at HotScripts.com.
