Refreezing meat isn't a good idea. But if you must, the meat should not have been old the first time it was frozen, it should have been thawed under refrigeration and then frozen again shortly after being thawed.

If it were me I'd use unfrozen, raw shrimp...it only takes a few minutes to cook through. When I want to cook thawed, pre-cooked shrimp in a frying pan however I make sure it's totally thawed and I also pat it dry. I make sure my pan and whatever I've got in there is up to temp, toss in the shrimp and stir. Not too much liquid, depending on what you're making, or it will just steam/simmer. You've got to be really careful with this though since the shrimp will get super tough and rubbery if cooked too long. Raw shrimp is definitely better-it turns from grey to pink and is nice and juicy and not too tough.
Shrimp cannot stay out for very long before it goes bad. It is recommended that cooked shrimp stay out no longer than an hour and a half.
Yes, shrimp should not have white dots.
According to the USDA, once food is thawed in the refrigerator, it is safe to refreeze it without cooking, although there may be a loss of quality due to the moisture lost through defrosting. After cooking raw foods which were previously frozen, it is safe to freeze the cooked foods. No, you should not refreeze meat once it has been thawed.
