OpenSSL Unresolved External Symbol LNK2019 When Compiling Synergy in VS2013 - c++

Question

First, let me start by saying I've read EVERY post, link, answer, etc I can find that points to Linking/External Symbol errors in Visual Studio/C++. With that said, here are the 27 errors I'm getting:

1>C:\Users\ME\Downloads\synergy-master\synergy-master\lib\MinSizeRel\ns.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 26 unresolved externals
Some background: I've downloaded Synergy from their GitHub and built it without error. Getting it to build took a small amount of hacking because they don't officially support Visual Studio 2013, but not overly difficult. I also built is using the latest Qt instead of the one they provide on their site (2010) I'm also using OpenSSL from SLProWeb, 32-bit full version.
Anyway, I cleared up a minor error or two in their code and tried to compile it first from command line, and second with VS GUI. Both spit out the 27 errors shown above. As I said, I've searched high and low trying to figure out what I've done wrong, but ultimately found nothing. I copied ssleay32.lib and libeay32.lib, with their .dlls, into the /ext/openssl/out32dll folder, where Synergy looks, which didn't work, so I pointed the linker additional libraries directory to it manually and also added it to the additional includes, and added the two .libs to Input>Additional Dependencies. Still no good.
In a last ditch effort, I added this to the top:
#pragma comment(lib, "libeay32.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "ssleay32.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "libeay32MD.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "libeay32MDd.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "libeay32MT.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "libeay32MTd.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "ssleay32MD.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "ssleay32MDd.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "ssleay32MT.lib")
#pragma comment(lib, "ssleay32MTd.lib")
while also copying the rest of the libs into the out32dll folder. This proved that it know the files existed, but still refused to resolve the External Symbol issue.
To me, it looks like it isn't properly loading libeay32.lib, which contains the crypto portion of OpenSSL that the compiler complains about....
