This is the same thing, but also allows redirect off-site with no 'gotcha' either:

I've been running this for a very long time (as in years) on a few different sites. Nobody has gotten around it yet.
And it's not quite the same as the mod you posted. This one also bans hostnames, which is a HUGE difference that works wonders.
EDIT: The only reason for the 2 updates to this were...
Update 1) I exported from my development server which I forgot was set to a different hook.
Update 2) I never expected anyone to leave a field blank.
