Blocking posts with Links

So...who hates spam? It seems we've gotten really good at killing those nike shoe ad guys who create threads, so now were being drenched with spam posts on three year old threads by bots that randomly grab words and link to drug addiction websites.
So, is it possible to automatically block posts that contain certain web addresses? Doing so should kill the current crop of spam.
