finding archive utility app and uninstalling winzip?

i have zip files that now default to WINZIP which i downloaded for a demo and never uninstalled. can someone remind me how to uninstall it again?


ALSO, i am trying to set ZIPPED files to open with ARCHIVE UTILITY but i don't see anywhere to set this with the OPEN WITH dialogs. i checked in the UTILITY FOLDER in applications but it is not there. i forget if this is something obvious or what.


THANKS
