Unzip utility for OS 9.0.4?

Is there a recommended utility for unzipping inside SheepShaver running OS 9.0.4? I found that Stuffit had trouble with some recently-made zip files, and I'd be grateful for any suggestions on what might work best.

Yes; I can't recall it's name/link right now, but it is linked on the forums and on the Mini vMac site. Works for older Mac OS versions too, and handles OS X zip archives.

Hmm... Now I think I remember it also, but only vaguely. It isn't on the list of software on the miniVMac site, as far as I can see. Maybe someone else remembers?

EDIT: It was MacZip. There's a download of 1.06 at Macintosh Garden, but not 1.07b, which seems to have been the last one.

MiniUnzip is the one I was thinking of. Thanks, Jorpho!

I think MiniUnzip is the only one that handles OS X Zips back to System 7.
