You should use the .a (if you are using MinGW) that comes with your DLL and add a line like this one your .pro file:

LIBS += "PathToLib/libcryptopp.a"

Please refer to Qt documentation, it's pretty complete: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.6/qmake-variable-reference.html#libs

You could also load dynamically the DLL using QLibrary
