Use the 3rd param to the Html::link() method to pass HTML element attributes.

echo $html->link(
        'Profil bearbeiten',
        array('controller' => '', 'action' => ''),
        array('class' => 'links')
);

It's difficult to say what the controller/action names should be here
based on your earlier, non-Cake code. It appears that the last 3 of
those links point to the same place.

Also, you could probably do without the class="links" altogether,
since your CSS rule could be:

.linkbox a { ... }

There's no reason for the divs to be re-coded.
