Although I do not personally use it, I hear very good things about 7-Zip.

I'm using 7-zip on both of my machines... It works great, but there is one thing that irritates me, it cannot extract tar.gz files in one operation. First you'll have to gunzip it and then you'll have to untar it..

I use PicoZip and it will extract tar.gz files. Maybe try it out hope this helps.

The reason that I use 7-Zip, is because it's open source and free. And PicoZip isn't free..
