Minor issue with Sony Xperia U

I updated to Android 4.0 a few days ago and have come across an issue where every single application I install automatically creates its own shortcut on the home screen.

It's not a big issue but I preferred it when it didn't clog the screen with shortcuts as I download numerous apps.

Any way as to turn this setting or feature off?
