Connes' Rigidity Conjecture

Are ICC property (T) groups remembered by their von Neumann algebras - if $L(\Gamma) \cong L(\Lambda)$ for such groups, must $\Gamma \cong \Lambda$? A counterexample refutes Connes' conjecture that these groups are uniquely determined by their group von Neumann algebras.
