Do you recall what might have changed on your system 3 weeks ago? New software? New hardware (even external)?

Have you checked for malware or viruses?

It's a known game bug. I'd suggest you look at swtor forums for solutions, there are quite a few known ways around it. Here's one. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=551224
