Hi :) I guess the detailed answer is to ask which operating system you are using; Windows, Linux (such as Ubuntu, Edubuntu, Mint, Salix ...), BSD or Mac?
For Windows probably the best program is WinRar http://www.win-rar.com/download.html WinRar is available for Windows, Linux, BSD and Mac http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm although most OSes (except Windows) probably have something built-in already. Most of the linux distros tend to have an archive reader built-in that can read zip format but knowing which distro would help us find the name of the archive manager/reader. Please see Lyudmil's answer at the bottom of this thread.

Use some un-zipper (7-zip, WinRAR, ...) to extract the document tree structure. The document contents itself is in "\word\document.xml", and the comments are in "\docProps\core.xml". (Use Notepad or similar, search "description". XML-Notepad couldn't help, for me at least.)
