I forgot something...you need to clear out the password1 and password2
fields before saving. Use this:

function beforeSave() {
                if (isset($this->data['User']['password1'])):
                        $this->data['User']['password'] =  
Security::hash($this->data
['User']['password1'], null, true);
                        unset($this->data['User']['password1']);
                endif;

                if (isset($this->data['User']['password2'])):
                        unset($this->data['User']['password2']);
                endif;

                return true;
        }
