Default Buzzing noise from switch

If it's a switch, it shouldn't buzz or crackle. Replace it. If it's a
dimmer, replace it with a switch

Hello,

I just changed a 60W incandescent bulb for a 27W (100W equivalent) CFL
bulb in one of the rooms in my house. The light is controlled via two
three-way switches, one at either end of the room. When one of the
switches is in the "up" position, and the light is on, the switch
itself makes a buzzing noise.

Any pointers? I was going to take the switch out and make sure all
the wires were connected properly.

Thanks!
Chris
