Does anyone have a favorite tool used to crack the password in a zip file? I've done the basic Google search but would like personal recommendation if anyone has used one in the past and had success with it.

I'm basically looking to use one to prove a point with a decision to password protect a zip file and want to see if a tool can brute-force or guess on dictionary words in a reasonable amount of time.

I have a commercial tool that removes passwords from most common data formats. I bought it to crack a protected .MDB but I've used it a couple times on .zip files and .pdfs.
