The Signals library is trying to link, but it isn't finding the library.
Have you used "bjam" to build the Boost libraries? If not, the "Getting
Started" guide can help. Once you've built the libraries, make sure that
you have added the path containing libboost_signals-vc80-mt-1_33_1.lib
to your link directories (somewhere in the project options).
