With the last update, "NoScript" suddenly started blocking page refreshes and redirects.
How do I turn that off?

Update to the latest (v1.1.9.85) development build & see if the issues don't lessen (or even subside).

If you want to disable the changes made to refresh, change the noscript.forbidBGRefresh Preference to 0.
+ Experimental blocking of page refreshes happening inside untrusted
unfocused tabs, should provide protection against Aviv Raff's scriptless
"tabnabbing" variant.

Enabled by default, can be controlled through the
noscript.forbidBGRefresh about:config integer preference:

0 - no blocking
1 - block refreshes on untrusted unfocused tabs
2 - block refreshes on trusted unfocused tabs
3 - block refreshes on both trusted and untrusted unfocused tab
