I do not know what it is, there is no code in Ekiga to display
exclamation marks.

I don't know. Probably you do not use the standard icon set.

There is a limitation in Ekiga 2.0.x : dealing with the calls history
takes much time because it stores 300 calls and GConf is not really
optimized for that.

I suggest you to empty each section of the history : Missed Calls,
Placed Calls, Received Calls, you have to hit 3 times the "Clear"
button. 

It should work better after this.
