The problem of the evaluation of massless on- shell double boxes was solved in [2, 3, 4, 5], with multiple subsequent applications to the calculation of two-loop scattering amplitudes in gauge theories [6]. First cal- culations of massless on-shell four-point three-loop Feynman integrals were done in [7]. Complete algorithms for the evaluation of massless on-shell double boxes with one leg off shell were also constructed. Master integrals were calculated using the MB representation (first results in [8]) and the method of differen
