    The quick idea - is
    1. Convert all existing passwords in DB to lower case.
    2. Add conversion to lower case into signup script, so all new passwords are same.
    3. Convert $p var before $db->check_login(...) in check.inc.php

    Maybe there is cleaner way :confused:

    No there is no other way, also there will be a problem with .htpasswd plugin and with all integration plugins. So I don't recommend to do this.
