Does anybody know of a good Objective C decompiler? If so where can I download it?

Decompilers generally give you assembly. I don't think you're going to be turning machine code into nice and easy Objective-C code, if that's indeed what you're asking for.

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist 2.5.2. Macworld - five mice!

The OS X developer tools include otool, which can disassemble and is savvy to the Objective-C runtime.
