Have your checked
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/sql-grant.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/sql-revoke.html

I would start by creating a role:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/user-manag.html

And revoke all on it.  Then add only the permissions it needs and assign the role to the user.
