Extracting multiple Zip files

I have a bunch of zips (200+) throughout a folder structure. I don't want to have to go to each zip and unzip one by one. I want something that will go through the folders, find each zip, and extact in it's location to a newly created folder using the zip name as the folder name.

Winzip will not do this. With Winzip I can "extract to here using filename as foldername", but this only works if all the zips are in the same folder. I can do a search for *.zip and list all the zip files throughout the folders, highlight them all, and then "extract to here" but it extracts them all to the location of the first zip file in the list instead of where it actually resides.

Does anyone know how I can accomplish this task?

Thanks dzborn

Winrar can do it, I think. If you select multiple files, there's an option to extract each to separate folders (named after the archive).
