I was looking for this option and searched the net to find quite some utilities to do this.

1. gvfs-archive — Select the file in nautilus and select ”Archive Mounter” .. simple isn’t it. Supposed to work but didn’t work for me.. Though that may be because I am on rawhide.
2. <a href="http://www.onicos.com/staff/iz/release/mi-arcfs/">mi-arcfs is another kernel dependent module to achieve this.
3. <a href="http://code.google.com/p/fuse-zip/">fuse-zip from google code is another nice option.

And a nice article on this this is <a href="http://osdir.com/ml/gnome.usability/2003-01/msg00092.html">here.
