Controlling Links

What are you all doing to control links these days?

Basically, I want to know how I could make it so that new members need to post a few times before they can post a link. Is that possible?

Whether it's a core feature or a plugin.

I think that could help with a lot of spam.
 
I've added [URL as a spam phrase, and members must post X number of posts before their posts aren't checked for spam anymore. Before that all their posts go into the moderation queue if they contain links. That seems to do the trick for me.

Edit: After a quick look, I also have the following as spam phrases:

Code:
/https?/i
/www/i
