Default 2Switches - one light - how?



We have two switches (on top of stairs, one bottom) for a light.
(It was set up in 1965, so I don't think there's fancy chipwork.) How
was this set up? I'm thinking of replacing one switch with an infrared
motion detector switch, but I have had some problems with these IR
detectors if the lightwork is too fancy (eg, one LED bulb would never
switch off in IR mode, but would manually switch on/off).
