JAR (and WAR and EAR) files are just ZIP files with a different extension to allow them to be recognised by various Java programs. Just rename your file to <whatever>.zip and use winzip. However, there's usually no reason to have to do that with such files for normal usage.
If you want to have a full-blown Java toolset available to you, go download the J2SDK from java.sun.com and you'll get the full monty. --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral (formerly PIER System, Inc.)
