Take a look at the net yaroze programming tutorial in the gane demos
section on this site. Chapter four deals with bounding boxes for 2D games
but you could modify the example code - adding a z axis check - to make it
work for your 3d games. 
It also deals with bounding sphere detection which works equally well for
2D and 3D.
