I see the problem.  Cf. 
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398833.aspx (especially the 
first two lines in the table), lync uses TCP only, while ekiga uses UDP 
only.  That is the reason lync traffic is not blocked, while ekiga's one is.

There is some work for ekiga to support TCP too, but someone needs to 
think seriously about it.  For someone who has the knowledge of the 
code, it could be simple.
