OpenRefine cannot open any of my old projects, nor any new ones. I see in the inspector that it is trying to get http://d3js.org/d3.v2.js with no luck, and it appears that this is preventing OpenRefine from opening the projects. Finally, after some minutes, the project is opened, but the d3js file has not been loaded.

As far as I know, OpenRefine doesn't use D3. Perhaps you have an extension installed which does? No one should be loading software resources over HTTP these days and it looks like that resolves to a permanent redirect (301) to the HTTPS version, so if the client isn't configured to follow redirects, you'd likely get the behavior that you're seeing.
One of the columns in your inspector should include the source code location (and perhaps stack) which should help you determine the source of the call.

aha, you were right. Thanks. It was the vit-bits extension. Turned off.
