If you have Windows on your computer then you may not need any programs at all to install mods into minecraft; just open %appdata %\.minecraft\bin and rename minecraft.jar to minecraft.zip, add whatever it is you want to add, then rename it back to minecraft.jar.
I recommend you use WinRAR though. Wherever minecraft.jar is on your computer (I have Windows, so mine is in %appdata %\.minecraft\bin), open it with WinRAR and then you can drag files into it. Most mods come with a readme file that tells you how to install it, or instructions on a website. You will usually need to delete a folder inside minecraft.jar named META-INF.
Don't leave the space before the second % sign.
Remember to back up your minecraft.jar before you try and mod it!
