I think this should do it:
   /usr/local/vscanx/vscanx --move /SERVER/VOLUME/VIREX_OUT/QUARANTINE 
/SERVER/VOLUME/SHARE --recursive --unzip --atime-preserve 
--ignore-links  --summary >> /SERVER/VOLUME/VIREX_OUT/SUMMARY.TXT && 
echo "Finished at:"  >> /SERVER/VOLUME/VIREX_OUT/SUMMARY.TXT && date >> 
/SERVER/VOLUME/VIREX_OUT/SUMMARY.TXT

For the hard-of-wrapping, that's all one line. The "&&" means "wait 
until the previous command is finished and then run the command that 
follows". I would personally prepend the date to the file, but you pays 
your money & takes your choice.
