OSX has builtin zip. It is under the actions button labeled "Create Archive of..."

OSX will also unzip via "BOMArchiveHelper" which is built in as well.

Of course it is best if zip files are created on the Mac since Windows zip files are not always predictable in preserving the resource fork. But OSX zip will do the job.

Stuffit will unzip as well.

Are you sure about zip? My experience is that applications never work on Mac 9 or X after being zipped, as it doesn't preserve the resource fork. I find sit & dmg to be safer for apps.
